Anyone on here with knowledge of insurance policies for players this old?  I know for young players it's common, wouldn't imagine it's as easy to get anything worthwhile towards the end of a career. 

$14M bump this year, which is really "only" a $9M bump when you factor the DE franchise tag is $21M.  But even at $30M for this year, he's F'd if he gets seriously hurt this season. 

He would've been better off not playing this year, signing with someone next year for what would've easily been $60 to $80 million guaranteed over 2 or 3 years.  He would lose the $16M this year and his guaranteed net would still be $30-$50 million more across the life of the new contract. 

Hope he stays healthy. 

Buddy, after this season his career earnings will be almost $100 million. I think he's gonna be fine.

I always think back to Lance Briggs when I see these stories. 

Feels like every year there's a new saga where it's become too personal, they're too far apart, it's over, etc. And then at the last minute, a miracle happens. 

It's why I don't pay much attention to those kinds of things.

Yep, it's all just part of the negotiation.

We think that but the crazy thing is how many go broke within a decade from bad investments, loans or frivolous spending. Its crazy.
