I wonder what happens to his franchise tag if there's no season? Does it just carry over to the next year?
Because it sure looks like they're all going to be sitting out. We're going in the exact wrong direction right now. Supposedly MLB was going to cancel the season today but I guess it didn't happen. |

It’s a tough situation made worse by Covid revenue uncertainty.
I can’t really blame him but I seriously doubt he walks on $16m. I don’t see any reason why he’d go to training camp though |

I can't hate on the guy. Showed up in the Super Bowl and was a big part of why we won. I don't think we have anywhere near the cap room, though. Nothing can be allowed to jeopardize our ability to sign Mahomes. Nothing.

If he wants to be that greedy . **** him. I have no sympathy for anybody that will bitch about making more money in one year than I'll make in my lifetime. **** him and trade him to the Bengals and let him rot.

Do it in increments he understands. Imagine you've got to stroke 20 hogs off but you only get to keep the juice from 16. Still feel like jacking those last four?

Sure is if you're a greedy mother ****er! Be a team player and make 120 million over the next ten years. Think you can feed your great, great, great, great grandkids on that???

Methinks the Chiefs are not for long for Chris.
The locker room basketball story I think is a tip of the iceberg situation about this guy. |

Dammit, Chris bad timing in this uncertainty. If there is a season play your ass off prove they would be fools to move you. Either way, you get a king's ransom.

If the chiefs had lost that Texans playoff game with Jones injured, his value would be through the roof. But the fact that the chiefs won playoff games this season without him makes his bargaining value slightly lower.
I also think Taco Charlton is going to surprise this season. Not based on anything, just a hunch. |

Didn’t he say he was going to play under the franchise tag?
Did Levon Bell get a big contract by sitting out a year? He lost $20 Million by sitting out a year. Did he make that up? |
