Tepper: "I have an idea, lets trade our for the #1 pick and give up next year's first and to make sure our first next year is #1 lets give up DJ Moore and lets get our rookie QB killed!"

Anyone with a brain: "Sir... we've graded the top 3 qb's and they are all the same grade... i don't think we need to trade away DJ Moore to get the first pick, why not just trade to #3 and win with DJ Moore and probably get Bryce Young at #3 anyways?"

Tepper: "No... we must do it 3 months before the draft, the soonest trade up in NFL history, and we MUST get the #1 pick so people can see my face... I mean, we are so good at these kinds of decisions and trading away poo players while trading for good players since I've been here.. its not like any of the players we've traded away or let walk went on the to be the best at their position in the league!"

Fitterer: "You know what.. I want my face on TV too... let's do it!"

In all seriousness, I want to believe Tua was telling Bryce that he was in his shoes two years ago and to keep his head up.  The face Bryce is making is because Tepper and Fitterer exist.

Yeah , Tua wasn't good his first season, constantly being benched for Fitzmagic 

And the hug tells me Tua has been talking to him for a while

This. Tua and Bryce are close. I'm sure Tua was just telling Bryce to keep his head up and focus on the things that he can control and that he believes in him. The same stuff anyone close to Bryce with his best interests at heart would be telling him. It just carries a lot more weight coming from a fellow NFL QB who has walked this path before.

      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.
