I would say Lombardi would be under pressure.
He had a chance to compliance buyout Richards last summer but gave Richards the opportunity to come back.
Lombardi's bosses are likely not happy, especially if they end up giving up assets to get rid of the contract. Lombardi probably looks very foolish right now.
