nope and the last pic of Luck I saw he looks like he has lost a lot of weight and muscle.  Not surprising 

Actually looks like there is a big rumor and a lot of talk about Luck coming back to the Colts.  Check this out:

David Newton is such an idiot. Imagine falling into a job covering a professional sports team for the largest sports media company in the country and being terrible at that job with no repercussions. Sounds about white.

Could replace his name with Joe Person or any number of others and it would be equally true, heh

McCafferey taking issue with David Newton...

I'm going to  say that had CMC been healthy this season, we'd probably have gotten five more wins. We'd probably also be talking about how Bridgewater was able to eat opponents alive with the short passing game thanks to CMC.

We have to remember that the offensive plans for the season centered around utilizing CMC to his full potential. Even though Davis was able to come in and serve as a really good RB1, it still wasn't anything like having CMC back there. CMC is a game changing athlete and requires a ton of defensive resources to keep him under some sort of control.

Teddy's short game was good, but with CMC coming out of the backfield, those eight yard pass plays suddenly turn into 12 yard plays, 15 yarders, 65 yarders... The run game increases to the point where the other team has to bring a safety into the box opening up downfield opportunities. A lot of those three and outs become long, scoring drives.

Yeah, the CMC injuries wrecked the season for us.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
