"Due to how Wilkins treated the rehab from his foot injury he suffered last season, the Raiders voided the remaining $35.2 million of guaranteed money left on Wilkins contract last month and today, Wilkins filed a grievance with the NFLPA."

 

Interesting.

Usually it takes beating a woman or grape accusations (not a given even then), to get guaranteed money voided.

 

Whatever it is, it must be EGREGIOUS AF and documented well. Was he getting podiatrist consulting from Sammy Watkins??!?

That's all off-field, non-football stuff.

 

***** around with your Football stuff will get you cut and money taken.

 

Cant wait to see all the details aired.

Jones probably Oliver no. Yea Wilkins when he was with the Fins was dam good. But a year with the Raiders hurt and supposedly not taking rehab seriously? Give me the more reliable and still good Oliver. But if Beane wants to kick the tires and protect Josh’s nuts and sign him I wouldn’t mind

Sounds like a Process guy no ?

 

I would vote against.

I don't want the headache but I more don't want the chiefs or ravens to get him. The chiefs probably won't as they value the locker room. The ravens probably will

I said next Oliver instead of Jones, not in place of Oliver.

Wilkins was well on his way to another good season last year.  The year before that he was an absolute menace.    That said, he is 30 years old coming off a foot injury, lower body is never good for guys over 300 pounds.   Would be all for bringing him in if he fits the culture, but I dont expect him to sign anywhere for less than 13 million. 

 

I'd watch NE. Minnesota, Miami and Carolina for a move here.

Figured we could use 1 thread to post stuff happening at camps for other teams.

 

Also because I wanted to post this and didn't know where else, and while entertaining, probably doesnt need its own stand alone thread

 

Chase laughing so hard had me cracking up too

 

 

 

People laughed at Coleman for getting his jacket at Macy's? 

That's a step up from Kroger's for sure! 

 

To be honest I've bought more than a few clothes in the last 5+ years in Super Market/ Department store 😞

That's what I mean though. I can't ever remember a team voiding guaranteed money for (not rehabbing) injuries.

 

We know it's for the rehabbing but, the players union is gunna try and treat this like yanking guaranteed money for being injured. Knowing that and see all of this happen out of nowhere, they must have some reallyyyy solid proof.  No matter what theyre willingly firing up a pretty serious labor dispute.

 

I could absolutely be wrong,probably someone more informed than me on here knows better? But it seems unavoidable to me

I would take Christian Wilkins rehabbing a foot yesterday.

 

Unfortunately, when stories like this come out, it wouldn’t be surprising to find out he has lost his desire to play football.

Betcha they don’t have the BALLS to do it 

He’s a perfect fit for our MVP.  His family owns a nut farm and Wilkins can’t keep his hands off them.

Was just reading up on the whole Wilkins saga, and turns out he was originally injured by one of his own teammates as they were celebrating and the teammate jumped up and then landed on Wilkins foot.

 

VERY Raiders here.

 

Love every minute cause it aint us (anymore).

 

Another point on Raiders doing this: NFLPA is at an all time weakest right now with no leadership. Any other year and maybe Wilkins gets traded or Raiders even eat it. But it'll be interesting if FOs smell blood in the water and start taking advantage of an NFLPA in shambles.
