Honestly, Marvin Jones isn't a #1 WR.
Tyler Boyd probably isn't either.
One realizes this. The other doesn't.
The bottom line is, the Bengals offered Jones #1 money, the same money he got in Detroit. Jones knew playing with Green he would always be a #2 in a smaller marker, as opposed to a #1 in a larger market. He's a businessman, and knew that to grow his brand and get better shoe deals, commercials, endorsement deals, etc., he needed better exposure than he would get playing here. I respect that decision. But the Bengals not wanting to pay him, as many here keep saying, is simply untrue. They offered him more than he is worth.....
