It's absolutely possible for someone to take a team-friendly deal, but if someone told me I could take $10m this year from the Chiefs or go play for the Raiders for $15m, it sure would be hard for me to say that extra $5m isn't worth it.

possible for him to stay, but probably not financially responsible. It was, however, likely his decision to make, so I'm not sure why he'd be upset with it.
