The default language was a new precedent for the Bengals and they wanted a concession from them to accept the language. He alluded to a change in the timing of the payout of the signing bonus.
Im sure they wanted more than 500k. Did they want 100% at signing? I'm not sure but the Bengals did 50% at signing 50% in Dec for Mims. So the fact that they finally took 500k and said okay makes me wonder if they could've ended it sooner with a change in the payout 60/40 perhaps. But my point is the concession for the language not the language itself is what I had heard for over a month and the fact that's what they did makes it seem accurate. Like I said Im sure it was more than 500k because that would make the Bengals look terrible and ill give them the benefit of doubt.
Hiller isn’t reliable. Look at his portfolio. Listen to Mike Brown. When asked it was obvious he was befuddled over the whole deal. Trust me if had been just 500k even before mini camp they’d done it. Hiller was trying to make a name for himself. His clients are making peanuts. It’s awful. He’s a nobody. I was told it was all about getting his name tweeted by Schefter, Pelissero, Rapoport, and the like and drag it out. Get through the weeds
Romo “ so impressed with Zac ...1 of the best in the NFL… they are just fundamentally sound. Taylor the best winning % in the Playoffs of current coaches. Joe Burrow” Zac is the best head coach in the NFL & that gives me a lot of confidence." Taylor led the Bengals to their first playoff win since 1990, ending the longest active drought in the four major North American sports, en and appeared in Super Bowl LVI, the first since 1988.
