Xavien Howard holding out

any disarray within the Fins is always welcome.

 

that said, holding out after the first year of a long extension is the new NFL, I guess. Makes Gilmore look like a saint.

Totally agree on Phins disarray.  This is a considerably different situation than Gilmore’s too.  Howard is a top CB, but he’s being paid like one and just got a big 5 year contract extension that started a year ago.  It really doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.

He's going into the second year of his deal. 

 

The 2nd year of a very lucrative deal that made him the highest paid CB in the league (at the time).

 

It would be one thing if he signed a deal that he vastly outperformed, but that's not what's happening here at all. I'd be pissed if a Bills player did this

so far re-negotiating or re-re-negotiating as is the case with X Howard (says he has out-played contract based on league-leading 10 picks most since 2007) has not been an issue with Bills players (so far)..another nod to the front office and the players (and agents)...

This is beautiful that is happening to them, though a guy like him might want to be careful about becoming a malcontent when he will still be a top 10 paid CB.
