2025 NFL Season Thread

If I was Parsons agent I would have said the same thing. I am not letting my agent lose one possible dollar because I was not there to do my job for him and make sure he got every dollar I could get for him.

Regardless, if you’re negotiating with someone in your org and they say they want to proceed through their agent, then that’s what you do. You may not like it, you may lament the old days and old ways, you may reminisce about 30 years ago when it was different and great players treated you like a father. Save it for Sunday dinner. Attend to the business of the team professionally.
 
So here's the flip side. Jerry talks to his player Micah that he has / had a relationship with. Agrees to make him the highest paid defensive player - at least regarding guaranteed money, Micah agrees to it, and then the agent says he won't even look at it?

If - big if - and I'll never be an owner, Screw that.

Most owners are not GM. Also it's rare that any GM or cap guy will ever talk contract to a player direct unless that player does not have an agent. Jerry is just trying to take advantage of players who don't know all the in's and outs of deals to get the best price for him. Jerry does not give a shit about the players.
