Question I don’t think we have discussed:
How do the fines affect his cap number? He missed 1/18th of his salary by missing preseason game 1… does his cap number now go down? He’s racked up more than $1M in camp fines. Do those subtract from his base?

Teams honor the contract exactly as it's written. Being able to cut a player is right there in black and white for both parties to agree to. Situational settlements and penalties for either side not living up to their end of the deal is all in black and white. If you want to blame players, teams, and the media for yapping their traps about the big inflated figures that only actually happen if the world spins perfectly for the whole deal, go ahead. Believing the hype doesn't mean the contract isn't being adhered to by both sides. |

I hear the Chiefs and Chris Jones are still 14" away from a new contract.

That would be a fun under the table loophole if there was a need... oh hey, we'll need you to hold out for a bit to clear some cap space, but we'll make it up to you in your next contract instead of restructuring under this cap.

I'm hoping that it does in fact reduce the total cap hit that is used to calculate next years franchise tag. Thus Veach could reduce that tag number by a few million if a contract is not reached. Veach a mastermind? Knows he won't ever pay Jones $30M and plans to tag and trade him next offseason but only tells Jones/agent that they are working on it and a deal could still get done thus Jones keeps sitting out! At some point the agent and Jones will call Veach's bluff and Jones will report but by then his tag number will be in the $20M's not the $30M's anymore! MUAHAHAHAHA |

There's tons of RB's across the league. We just had a 7th rd RB break out and think an undrafted RB this year could be really good. Chris won't face that many consequences, but he's also gonna be on the field unlike Bell.

No I don't think he will sit out but are you attempting to say Bell wasn't the top 1 or 2 RB when his contract deal went down?
