I agree. This isn't like TO who signed a big money deal and then wanted to renegotiate. This is still his rookie deal and he is making just over 1 million bucks. He may only have a good 5 more years in him so I agree its not fair that he play for the next 2 years and sacrifice his body for only that. Might not even make it the next two years.

Doesn't look good right now between he and the Titans though as i heard he said today they are still not seeing eye to eye even after th emeeting tommorow. I just can't see them holding out with him too much longer and my fantasty team sure can't either...
