He'll play, 'aggravate' it, have surgery and then miss most, if not all, of 2019 recovering and we won't be able to cut him because of it.

How can that be done? Isn't the contract the contract? We'd have to eat the dead money, but an injury settlement? **** that. Dude would be lucky to get a gig with the Jets after pulling some shit like that.

Since his cancer ordeal...Berry has assumed this "Zen master" persona. You would think someone with this new found, otherworldly insight into the inner-workings of the universe would be pragmatic enough to admit he was a "high risk" signing....and work WITH the team that stood beside him (and paid) during his treatment.
There was risk of remission, long term complications from Chemo, a chronic heel condition and past ACL surgery. Dorsey HAD to consider these risks before just throwing money at him...Berry didn't want to hear it and went above him. Berry was the unreasonable one in this whole ordeal...JD was protecting the team from this very scenario.
Berry played Chunt for his loyalty and used bad press to manipulate him. It wasn't a good look to have your comeback player of the year, face of the franchise, cancer survivor holding out and KC looking "insensitive".
Berry hasn't played a complete game since...

Don't forget the payout during cancer treatment that the Chiefs had NO ****ING OBLIGATION WHATSOEVER to pay, but mistakenly and stupidly assumed they were dealing with a grateful, character-laden individual...
BlackOp ****in' KILLIN' IT.
Repppp-ah!
