We've been waiting all week to find out where Jadeveon Clowney would end up. His free agency process has taken a weird turn in that his market hasn't been what many people expected, including Clowney himself.
The inability to travel and go through physicals due to COVID-19 has surely played a part in that. Clowney is coming off of core muscle surgery, and teams would understandably want to get an in-person look at him before offering a top-dollar contract.
According to Dianna Russini, Clowney has been holding out for a deal worth $20 million annually. Those offers still aren't coming, which has led Clowney to consider one-year deals in order to recoup some of his value and hit the market once again in 2021, per Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle. Now, Jake Heaps of 710 ESPN Seattle is reporting that not only are Clowney's current offers below his desired $20 million APY, they're well below that mark.
