I’d say he lucked out more that anything and the success of his team as a whole helped him reach some of those incentives.

Sure. But he took a calculated risk on himself. He had the $ to take said risk. He knew the consequences and decided to roll with himself and his teammates. This sort of free thinking and confidence in yourself should be applauded.

No doubt and he has every right to make them eat crow, I’m just looking at it objectively.

His point is valid though. Agents don’t do shit the majority of the time and they get way too much hard earned money from players. They also do shady shit which Sherman highlights.

If you’re a very good player with leverage, you can likely get away with it, but the average NFL player isn’t doing that unfortunately.
