Smizzy Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Chiefs | L. Johnson holdout continues Sun, 19 Aug 2007 21:58:22 -0700 Randy Covitz, of the Kansas City Star, reports Kansas City Chiefs RB Larry Johnson and the team remain at a stalemate over his demands for a new contract. He is working out on his own in Arizona. If his hold out were to continue into the season, he would have to return for at least five games to receive an accredited season, which would allow him to void the final two years of his contract and he would become an unrestricted free agent following the year. Would he do it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetsman1 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I believe he would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugg Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 A one-year deal would be a inivitation for Hermie to give him 500 carries. Don't see him going along with that unless he gets some hard promise they won't treat him like a rented mule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thai Jet Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Would he do it? Man that would be a tough choice but he's looking at a lot of if he's on the market as a FA. Would it be enough extra dough to make up for losing a big part of this years salary? like I said, tough call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sperm Edwards Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I don't understand how he was locked up for so long in the first place. He was like the 27th pick back in 2003 & he still has 3 years left on his rookie contract? According to kcchiefs.com he signed a 7-year contract as a rookie. As a freakin' running back. His agent should be shot so as not to infect any more people with his stupidity. LJ's would have to have severe brain damage to step onto the field without a new contract. 416 carries last year, this year the OL will suck, Herm is his HC, and he missed most of training camp (for whatever that's worth with Herm running it). He definitely WILL get injured this year. If he gets hurt early & doesn't play 5 games he doesn't get to void the last 2 years of his contract. Then he'll still be under his rookie deal at age 30. There's really nothing for him to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterNorth09 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Would he do it? Getting out of his contract would be the smartest thing for LJ to do. Herm and Carl Peterson are running the Chiefs organization into the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
