    I originally thought he'd be a PUP but reading up, he'd go to the NFI list. I didn't know they didn't have to pay the guys on THIS list and that wouldn't accrue games/seasons while on this list and off the 53 man roster.

    I don't know if this means they can essentially redshirt him and not pay him his first year salary...

    Or pay him his first year salary but it wouldn't count as year 1...?

    I don't know. Maybe someone else can check this out. If we pay him in year 1 but he doesn't play, would he still be eligible for his 5th year option for 2023...or would that get pushed back to 2024? If it gets pushed back to him not accruing his first season, how does that work since he'd be paid for 5 years before his 5th year option...so what's the structure of that? Or would they pay him 4 years and just lose a year of playing time and pay him as if he was playing anyway?

    IDK. I imagine when he signs...there will be a lot of discussion of how this gets worked out.

    So they let slaw dogs be NFL team captains huh? Interesting take. I think long and Bates will both make the team, with the hopes of Long being able to develop into a reliable piece for this team And eventually taking over Bates spot.

    Our special teams was good last year though. Can't wait to hear you complain when Bates and Walker both make the team lol.

    Neither will

    Bates might. Maybe after sucking last yr he improves

    As for our STs it's all about our kicker punter and KR

    Not the little LB that cant play defense.....

    Literally half of the things you say make absolutely zero sense.

    There have been days where our kickoff and punt teams have given up way too many yards and TDs. You cant say that about the last couple years.

    Titans gave up nearly 700 yards on kickoffs, which is not very good.

    And almost 300 on punts with Bates punk ass in charge.

    None of that is good

    Again, half of the things you say make zero sense. Anther perfect example here pointing out a proven bust and then a 1st round pick who hasn't played a snap lol
