Quote:Contract guarantees typically void for an exhaustive list of defaults by a player. The default language in Mims' contract that controls the voiding of his guarantees reads as follows:

Quote:"In the event Player fails or refuses to report to Club, fails or refuses to practice or play with Club (other than for an NFL football-related injury sustained while performing his services under this Contract), but specifically including but not limited to failure to perform due to incarceration (unless such incarceration is less than 72 hours and Player does not miss a game), death, injury incurred as a result of engaging in a non-football related activity, or if Player leaves Club without its consent, or if Player retires, or if Player is suspended by NFL or Club for Conduct Detrimental (other than a suspension of no more than three games for violating the NFL Playing Rules), or if Player is suspended for violating the NFL Personal Conduct Policy, or if Player is suspended for violating the NFL Policy on Performance Enhancing Substances, or if Player is suspended for violating the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse, or the NFL Gambling Policy or if Player makes any public comment, including but not limited to the newspaper, magazines, television, radio, social media or internet that breaches Player's obligation of loyalty to Club and/or undermines the public's respect for the Club, Club coaches, or Club management (provided that upon the first such comment Player shall receive a written warning and upon the second and any other subsequent comment, Player shall be in default of this Guarantee) or if Player otherwise materially breaches any provision of this Contract, then Player shall be in default ('Default'). If Player is in Default, this Guarantee shall immediately be deemed null and void from the beginning and in its entirety regardless of whether or not the Guarantee had otherwise been earned according to its terms at the time of Player's Default. In the event of such Default, Player will be entitled to earn the remaining Paragraph 5 salary on a non-guaranteed basis subject to any applicable fines and/or forfeitures."
