The NFL = Not For Long and every team in the league, including the Chiefs, would drop him like yesterday's underwear if he got injured and couldn't perform at the same level. So I don't blame guys like CJ for getting what they can while they can. Felt the same about Hill also.

I've been trying to figure out how he gains from holding out regular season games and it is just not making sense. Besides the fines adding up it seems to me he is damaging his value with the rest of the league. If he shows up and plays then ends the season as a UFA teams will get into a bidding war and he will find some team that will over pay for him but if he's holding out into the season aren't teams going to be more cautious about signing him, less willing to invest the $30M per he wants for a DT that will be 30 before the contract begins?
Or maybe I'm reading this wrong, IDK.
