Unless they somehow negotiate where Stewart would be willing to sign with that clause in there that the Bengals want, provided they pay him the cost of the games he missed up to that point (thereby potentially helping offset any voided guarantees down the road).

Frankly, I would likely to hear what the specific concerns are with the language in the contract, as they seem to be overly worried of Stewart doing something that would be considered detrimental to the team where the Bengals would actually void some guarantees.
Is it worry about saying something on Twitter/to the media that he may get docked for, smoking marijuana, getting into an altercation with another player on the field, what?

I don't think the Bengals are thinking about on field altercations or even smoking weed. MB is talking about not wanting to pay a guy who is sitting in jail. So to me that means they are worried more about Domestic Violence or a Henry Ruggs scenario
