TJ question

Is it possible for TJ and the Steelers to amicably tear apart the contract before the league new year in March and wipe the guarantees and such off the board; would the league and NFLPA approve of such an action? I have my doubts on the potential of this working, but felt like asking anyway.

 

LMAO

No. That.. isn't something that can happen. Why would TJ want that even if he could? Like... Tear up his big money contract and go play for his new market value, which is less?

 

Trade him to a team like the cowboys for a 1st round pick.

 

he's the least of our problems. my god man. change schemes and other folks and he will be just fine. you cant have all pros at 22 positions. this is not madden, he could very well bring other intangibles not on the box score that helps.

 

I hear what you're saying and my thoughts when asking such a question is merely along the lines of his willingness to be apart of a rebuild under a rookie HC during his sunset years as a player.

 

Guys going to be and eyesore to look at the next 2 seasons cringe

 

No way is anyone going to trade a 1st round pick for TJ now. 3 or 4 years ago, yes. Plus, they would have to pay his whopping 41 million a year salary, and he's not worth anywhere near that.

 

The team has cap space. Yes TJ is overpaid in the context of where he is as a player now. But the contract isn’t the millstone that people are making it out to be, especially the way the cap is ballooning every year. The team will have enough cap space to work with

 

Trade him for George Pickens. We need a #2 WR.

 

I'm not looking at it from a cap angle and more or less looking at it from the mindset of TJ not wanting to be apart of a rebuild under a new coach and wanting to get to a team where he can get a ring.
