    I think it makes sense for him to ask the world.

    Apparently, he signed a three year extension in March of 2025 that would keep him under contract to the end of the 2028 season.

    I think coaching salaries are generally guaranteed.

    So I think that means he'll get paid what his old contract said for the next three seasons if he doesn't take a job elsewhere.

    Not sure if that includes jobs that are outside the NFL (e.g. broadcasting, podcast?).

    Apparently, his extension was going to pay him $17MM annually.

    If all of this is true (I think it is, but I'm not sure), why would he take anything less than the perfect job in the next 3 years? Getting paid $50MM+ to do nothing is a hell of a retirement plan.

    Don't forget the Browns.. Read he might go there because of his roots to the area.

    Actually from everything I read, that is only for the Browns if they want him.
    The Demands he set them.
