He can save himself a TON of heartache by reporting today, swallowing some pride (y'know, only making $20 million this season...**** that makes my head hurt) and balling out.
At worst he'll get the 'thanks for the memories' send-off that Hill got before he started running his mouth to 'build a brand' in Miami. There's still a relatively happy ending to be had here for Chris Jones.
But man, he's gotta un-**** himself. This is just dumb.

That is among his best scenarios, but he still loses 8 game checks and $2mm for missed training camp. THEN, he is a near 31 yr old trying to negotiate that last big contract. Lost leverage. It's possible he balls out and would be fresher, but that magic is hard to recapture, especially if they are 5-3!
