“It’s clear that Shemar, based on precedent, feels like he can’t take the Bengals’ deal right now,” Fowler began. He then explained:

From my understanding of the language and the contract, they’re essentially, in some areas, asking him to take a pay decrease from where last year’s number 17 pick, Dallas Turner in Minnesota, got with certain bonuses. Usually those numbers go up every year, as far as the percentage guarantee. His, to my understanding, was going down. So that’s problematic, and it’s something he isn’t willing to accept.

It all may be 100% accurate but it is a fact it is a ons sided take from Fowler. Did he try to get the Bengals to give their side or just take the agent's side only? We know te answer, Bengals never talk so run with it as fact when it has not be confirmed.

Our fans are so quick to take the agent's word for everything like it is 100% factual. Yet, we have no idea f it is or agent's play to hurt the Bengals PR wise for leverage.

If you were accused of something I would think you would like an opportunity to dispute it? At least try Fowler and others versus writing things as fact whne they may be fiction.
