Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport took to Twitter on Wednesday morning to announce that Kansas City Chiefs All Pro wide receiver Tyrek Hill and his team were pursuing a trade.
Got crazy thinking that something like this could happen. I mean, with one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, Hill plays in one of the best offenses in the NFL, but he wants out.
It should be about the money...
So Hill and his team weren't going to be happy paying five years and $140ish million. Instead, the majors are letting one of the biggest wide receivers of this generation do the business.
It tends to show the fragility of situations and for many players the one thing above all... respect.
Davante Adams was the same person before he was traded to the Raiders.
Multiple outlets reported that the Green Bay Packers were about to match the contract awarded to Adams by the Las Vegas Raiders, but the All Pro wide receiver felt the relationship had gone too far.
These are considered the two model franchises in the NFL.
He also has two of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL and had massive contract extensions for his top, young wide receivers.
Respect is important in the NFL.
