How does sitting out a bowl game equate to making a decision for his family?

Do they get money from day one from the agents? Then I guess I get it ...

But the NFL contracts are non guaranteed money, . Does he sit out at practice ???



He currently has insurance for sure, guess can’t do anything about it .. day and age we live in

Yes. An agent who is flush will advance money

Do you really not understand? His signing bonus as a first round draft choice is absolutely guaranteed money--money he risks losing playing a meaningless game should he get hurt and his draft stock fall.

Look man, if he plays in the bowl he’ll most likely tear his acl and he will only sign for a few million.

He’ll never recover to play in the nfl again and for some reason won’t be able to raise a child on that chump change.


You better not question him either you POS!!!

This is wrong. Rosen, at 10, got fully guaranteed $17.2 million and a $10 million dollar signing bonus.

You gonna give up 25-30 million to play in a bowl game against UCF (your answer is no, by the way)? Schools strip scholarships all the time, yet you never complain about that. He’s done as much for LSU as LSU has done for him. And he’ll donate more in his first year of work than you and I will over our entire lifetime -combined (assuming you even donate).

Frankly, I cannot believe White is playing.

Top 10 pick has quite a bit guaranteed. If thats the only contract he ever gets, its life changing money. So, yeah him avoiding risk of injury in a bowl game makes sense.

The insurance on athletes is incredibly hard to claim and never pays out the full coverage if any.

Top round picks like 1-2 are about 50 - 70% guaranteed money plus a large signing bonus.

Here is Fournette's contract for Round 1 pick #4

quote:

Leonard Fournette signed a 4 year, $27,150,842 contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars, including a $17,886,067 signing bonus, $27,150,842 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $6,787,711.
