I really don't think it was about being the main option. In the grand scheme of things, the Lions did offer more money that the Bengals wouldn't give. There would be no way the Bengals offered 20 million guaranteed, and there might have been some other numbers that might have not benefited Jones to stay here. That's where the real money is and why Jones left. The Bengals work around some gtd money a bit but he still left because those numbers just were not there
Agreed. Joseph mentioned that the Bengals matched the total contract from the Texans, but they wouldn't match the guaranteed money.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
