A QB making 100 mil every 5 years can take less as well and never miss it, have a better team around him, have a better chance at a SB and the HoF… but usually it's ego that drives them to want to make more than their counterparts.
Why not play for minimum then? I mean how much more do you need when your wife is worth 400 million? Is that extra $20 Million a year really making a difference?
He chose being in a better position to win over even more money, however no one else in the NFL has a similar situation so it's pointless to compare what he has chosen to do to anyone else. It's laughable when people mention he "took less to win" without contextualizing it with "but is wife is almost worth as much as some of the owners in the league".
