I think the problem is if he retires he doesn't get any of it. He has been the meal ticket for his family for some time now and I'm sure the pressure is weighing on him. Concussions become easier to receive the more often you have them and the damage becomes progressively worse every time.And another concussion.

Meal ticket won't be there if he's brain dead. But he can always be a coachI think the problem is if he retires he doesn't get any of it.

Why would he retire?I think the problem is if he retires he doesn't get any of it.
Yep. Bet Mayfield doesn’t miss the Clowns, errr the “BROWNS”I gave up the woke NFL, but can't help but see the news. The Dolphins paying Tua is WAY smarter than the Browns paying a quarter Billlion and high draft picks for DeShawn Watson. Watson facing even more charges in Houston soon.
The concussions. They're easier to get the more often you receive them. This has an impact on how he plays, the plays which are called etc. If you're getting concussions all the time you're not worth anything being on the field. If you can't play, you're not worth anything and they cut you. I can almost guarantee his contract is written so that there's no guarantee if he's medically unable to play.Why would he retire?
He can ride the pine for a long time.
Eventually they will make him an offer.
All these players think in terms of generational wealth. They want to become a modern day version of Carnegie, Rockefeller, Vanderbilt.Steve Young and Patrick Willis retired in their prime. How many millions do ya need?
I hope he's OK.
You sure know a lot about the NFL considering you "gave up" on it....I gave up the woke NFL, but can't help but see the news. The Dolphins paying Tua is WAY smarter than the Browns paying a quarter Billlion and high draft picks for DeShawn Watson. Watson facing even more charges in Houston soon.
I've never heard a pro sports player talk about passing money down to his children. They usually want their kids to become pro sports players and make their own money. Priority for the money they do make is for themselves, family members (who would often be very poor without it), and their own retirement.All these players think in terms of generational wealth.
lol. 1/3 of their average listener says this. Tua is only an average qb. He was not worth that money even if he had no issues.You sure know a lot about the NFL considering you "gave up" on it....![]()
I'm a Pittsburgher, born and raised and a lifelong Steelers fan. Mike Webster's story absolutely broke my heart. I really feel so awful for the players of the 70s and 80s who had no idea about the damage they were sustaining to their brains.Look what was learned from Mike Webster's brain when examined by the pathologist at University of Pittsburgh: this was the first mention of CTE (Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy). Webster was a great center on Super Bowl winning Steeler teams hiking the ball to Bradshaw and calling out the blocking assignments but died of chronic hits to the head. All the current players are aware of all this. These hits to the head are a lot more than "getting his bell rung". The NFL is very worried that they are going to have a death from brain injury on the field.
Yes, I get it.The concussions. They're easier to get the more often you receive them.
