    Which makes all these injuries that much more annoying. We really had the potential to be a great pass rushing team.

    How do you sue a team for a blood disorder that they discovered and then saved your life?
    What better treatment?
    There was no malpractice.

    ya--either the Eagles and all his other doctors missed it and the NYJ caught it, or it was a false positive. In any case he's telling us he followed the NYJ docs and therefore is entitled to receive full contract value. That was my point as I'm interested in how the contract is going to play out.

    Speaking of his previous tenure with the Eagles, it may just be happenstance but this announcement happening while the Jets are practicing with Philly is kind of an oddly timed coincidence.

    he's paid very little. i doubt the jets opt not to pay him or make it a thing

    Ya--good chance u are right like u often are. I just think its an interesting situation from a contract law perspective and it could spiral into something. Just personal interest.

    For example, are we to believe that the jets signed him with no provision for passing a physical? Just give him 1.2mm and hope for the best? Maybe they did.

    Then Curry's statement piqued my interest even more--in it he describes a situation whereby it appears NYJ would have to cover the contract in case there was any doubt. Not sure why he published this personal statement for the world to see.

    Sorry, but you are definitely jaded if you think that statement in any way, shape or form conveys anything about his contract money or suing for malpractice. That's not reading between the lines, but rather just making up stuff.

    We are weak at LB outside of Mosley as well.

    HAVE to start making moves now. I'd start with KJ Wright, and then begin kicking tires at OLB/DE options.

    it's only a 1.3 mil contract and 1.075 is guaranteed. so we could only argue a case for maybe 225k at best. not worth it to get a bad rep to prospective free agents and possibly upset players on the team. JD has a good rep for caring about his guys as does saleh. wouldn't want to ruin that over what is essentially pennies so it's not even anything worth looking into.

    I dont know if there was a provision for passing a physical, I would think thats a given. No one is talking about the contract implications because quite frankly their of little consequence. He health, his life etc are more important and lets face it, its not like he has a long term, big money deal
