LionelRichie Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 i am sure this has been covered, but can anyone explain coles contract? I understand that the redskins paid him a roster bonus in March. but what did the jets pay him? didn't they renegotiate his contract or something? did the the jets give him an additional bonus on top of the redskins, or are the jets just on the hook for what they owe per year?

mudcat21 Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 The Jets gave him additional bonus money and guarenteed some of the remaining years on the contract all without adding any additional years to the contract or getting any salary cap relief in return. They also set a bad precedent by giving a player with a valid contract additional money for nothing in return. Players like Abe and Sowell noticed and are pissed.
