This was Skeletor's plan all along. If Seymour refuses to report, the Raiders can move to rescind the contract. If Seymour thinks he's going to walk back onto the Patriots, I doubt Belichick will be having any of that.

Yeah, they can be franchised for multiple years.
Some players who have sat out when they were franchised only returned on agreement that they wouldn't be franchised again.
Can the deal be recinded if Seymour refuses to report, or would that have been needed to be written as a condition of the trade?
I'm wondering if Seymour isn't sitting out until the Raiders promise not to franchise him.
