Didn't see this posted anywhere?  Doesn't give any specifics on $$, sounds like OBJ contract put him out of Bills price range.

I can't say I blame him one bit. We don't know what Beane came in with, but I would imagine it was a lowball offer with the allure of "being the best version nof yourself" and chasing a ring while playing with a QB Hopkins named. 

 

With what these guys go through physically over the course of a season and the long lasting issues they can face after their playing career I would never hold it against a guy to get every dollar he can.

Wouldn’t mind winning a Lombardi, but prefers top $. Can’t blame him. 

 

 

Yup. Can't blame him. But it does say something about his values. Nothing bad, but it points at what's important to him. Here's a guy who's already made over a hundred million if I'm adding correctly.

 

Those are the guys who sometimes give a real contender a break. He didn't. Which is fine. 

 

But revealing.

so Hopkins wanted to chase his last chance at the $$$$$,  over a possible Super Bowl ring.   whatever.  glad hes wasting his last years in Tennesee,   and not wasting our time.  im sure he wanted both the $$$ and chance to chase a ring tbh,  but hes shown what matters more.   no hate, get what you can.
