That's not how some of us prefer to view this t,here's like a middle somewhere, but think about it this way if he decides to hold out the entire year he loses $17 million,60M for *next* year.
This year, he's only due 30mil more.
I'd think he'd prefer to make 20-25 mil more *this* year. That's not chump change.
He'd also prefer to lock in a guarantee of a couple hundred mil rather than play a season unprotected for injury.
so say he gets injured, but does it matter Prescott got a major injury and still got paid a lot, he got what he wanted ,didn't hold out got hurt got paid... I don't think Joe Burrows injury didn't get him paid... I mean people get injured they still get paid... Now if he holds out the entire year 17,000,000 gone free agency gone because they're going to own them for another year from what I understand but I'd have to look that up however if he does get his 32 million or 33 million for next year and he plays on that half that's gone because he chose to sat out now it means he's playing for $17 million less next year and they could franchise tag him...
That would be a bell /Antonio Brown moment and PB said nope play ,we pay, don't BYE BYE , where they thought they were going to get enough money to make up for the holdout and no it never came you never will get that back you're chasing that money cause you lost it you're never going to be in the plus because somebody's going to pay him eventually between 30 and $34 million but he's going to have to play to get it because if he doesn't it's going to be minus $1,000,000 a game before he gets paid he will never get that back because they are planning to pay him in that range I guarantee it so if he chooses to hold out it would be a boneheaded move IMHO
