It was weak anyway.......he has zero leverage
Agreed. How many great games has he had in his career ? Maybe 12 to 15 total in 4 years ?

That doesn't exactly scream leverage, especially adding that he plays a lower value position and he's been vocal about how he really needs to improve his blocking

Good for him. No issue with what he did. He "held out" from voluntary practices. He isn't good enough to hold out from anything meaningful, but since he didn't this is a non-issue for me

Few tagged players have leverage when it comes to the tag. You sit out you lose millions of dollars and then teams aren’t gonna be excited about dealing with you
It’s even worse when it’s a position with a cheap tag like TE. They won’t but they could tag him again for near the same money he would get on the market
Players hate the tag and I don’t blame them, but all you can really do is play hard and get your big payday the next year, and buy some injury insurance lol

All Schlutz did was take his agents advice to skip the remainder of OTAs to maybe get some kind of dialogue started on a new contract. Common stuff that was blown way out of proportion and some of it came from posters who I believed were smarter than that.

He wasn't going to give away $100K in fines.
Plus
-open the door for one of the other TEs to step in and shine
-stall/ hinder his further improvement to have even a better 2022 season to earn a long-term deal with Dallas*....or elsewhere
* [no agreement reached before July 15th deadline]

He went back cause he’s scared they see how little impact they’ll lose without him.

Voluntary OTAs are involuntary if you're a replaceable player.
Yeah, they say "voluntary," but unless you're a player the team can't live without, you'd better be at "voluntary OTAs."
