First “amnesty” was turned into a verb, and now “franchise.” I disapproval.
Can’t imagine it would be that hard to sign him long term… If they have to use the tag on him I’d be shocked.
Kinda sad when this is the best you can do for a “frachise player” huh? This is why we need to trade our entire draft to St. Louis for the chance to draft the savior Robert Griffin. You know kinda like what Minnesota did for Herschel Walker and New Orleans did for Ricky Williams. How’d those turn out? UGH!
Yeah or like the Giants did for Eli!
