Tee had Chase and Burrow beating the table for him after he was franchise tag. Trey played after his trade request, led the league in sacks, and is still not getting what he wants, fair or not. Us fans can take whatever sides we want, but players will likely believe their fellow players side of things. As a player, I would think that even if I do well, I may not get contract love from the Bengals. In the end, do they think the language is a deal breaker for them? If so, maybe you should have been more selective with your draft pick.
In the end Ja'Marr ended up being the highest paid non-QB in the NFL. Joe, Ja'Marr and Tee are all happy. Trey could of taken at least 2 offers by
now that nearly double his salary this year. I agree it took years but in the end as long as they are all paid and happy it doesn't really matter to me.
Agree on they maybe should of been more selective with their draft pick if this Shemar crap goes on, sounds like it is clearly his agent advising him
here though. I think the common thread here is the FO is not going to overpay and the agent's besides Ja'Marr's are the problem.
