In that same breath, NFL teams can hand out contracts for 'x' amount of dollars and not have to pay the entire sum. I dont blame players that are worth the trouble for sitting there and saying, nah **** that... commit more money.

I feel you, man. We’re all a little butthurt in some form or another. We just lost a Kansas City legend! In his prime! I’m just saying, we shouldn’t be mad at Tyreek. Man just did what any red blooded American should and would do. Guy already missed out on his first contract (due to the conviction) then took a discount on his first extension (due to the allegations, which turned out to be total bullshit). Now it’s his time to cash in on what he’s rightfully earned. |

No state tax in Florida, too. And nightlife. And no snow. He’s already won a ring and had other accolades that will have his career end in canton. I can’t blame him for wanting to strike while the irons hot.

6% tax in Missouri. 0% in Florida. $120 million X 6% = $7.2 million more. Not chump change even for Hill.

It's going to sting for a long time but I do love the direction the team is going. We're building this thing to last.

It’s the right move for the franchise at the right time while his value is high and we can get picks to build our future on, instead of getting nothing in return when his contract ended. But yeah, a tough pill to swallow not getting to watch him play in red anymore. Such an exciting player.

I don't disagree with your premise and think the players should absolutely be using their leverage. But strictly from a contractual sense, the teams are living up to their obligations while players are reneging on theirs. Every player who signs knows exactly what he's guaranteed and how it's structured. But now players are threatening mutiny and to effectively breach the contract if their demands aren't met. They're not equivalent.

We don’t win the Super Bowl without Tyreek Hill. And we don’t win another one paying Tyreek Hill $30M/yr.
