In 6 years, Soldier Field will be 100 years old.

Sure, it was renovated 15 years ago, but it's still a punch bowl full of rabbit turds.

I don't understand what happened there, what is "offset language"?

a quick google gave me this at the top of the page

"In simplest terms, offset language allows teams to recover future guarantees if the player is released and then signs elsewhere. Teams enforce/demand offset language arguing 1) past precedent and 2) their own veteran contracts have offset language."

So if they cut a player and have to pay $10M in future guarantees but he signs with another team he has to pay them the money back.

Got it. If I was Roquan, their first round pick (right?) I would also say no to that.

The players usually do, but it's the sign that your front office doesn't have a clue. You've alienated your new player, if he holds out you're stunting his development, and all to possibly recoup a little money if he fails (which you've just made more likely).

Remember when everyone was all like "this is a good and smart move and not at all idiotic" when the Chargers did that? I'm glad the Bears FO was paying attention and following a proven model.

As long as he's signed in the next couple of days, I wouldn't worry about it. When is the last time the Bears had a hold out? They usually take care of this stuff quickly.
