It helps when trying to take a not so subtle jab at the organization to actually know what you are talking about. Rookies receive a four year contract with a team option 5th year. Unlike Carson Palmer, Joe Burrow won't be coming off one of the largest contracts in history to leverage into a "trade me or I quit" situation. I'll go with the other option and say Burrow plays through his rookie contract and if he is good we will re-sign him to an above market deal for a QB at the time as that is what we have done with our last two QB's after their rookie deals.
