Sure he was guessing. But other teams also were aware of implications so the market probably tanked as well. Do you take a 2nd or third? Not sure who would have been offering a 1.
I still bet with adding a game, increase in TV revenue ... The NFL worse case decides not to reduce the cap in 2021 even if it should go down under a calculations. Now that being said I think Veech bet prior to covid that there would be a huge increase.
But he can not sign Jones and gamble with not having the money to pay Patrick.
Jones is sort of in the grey area does he sign or hold out. Not sure the Chiefs really have a good option at this point.
