Coles gets a guarantee but no extension

March
28

A league source is reporting that Laveranues Coles and the Jets have “compromised” by guaranteeing the final two years of Coles’s contract at $11 million but not extending it. Except, by all accounts that was what the Jets had offered weeks ago and Coles turned it down. Why would he accept it now? He’s not getting any extra years or money. It just ensures that he won’t be cut, which he probably wouldn’t have been anyway unless he suffered a bad injury.

For a guy that’s been so vocal about mistreatment, I’m surprised he would take a deal that’s been on the table for a while. And then try to pass it off as a compromise.
