They voted on their CBA and that agreement stated that the team has the right to exercise the franchise tag on one player per year and up to three times on a player in his career.

The Drew Brees case has set in stone that it doesn’t matter which team invoked it, any use of that tag burns one of your three tag years.


While it isn’t a long term deal, it’s a shitload of money for one season if you are at a high paying position and QB is the single highest paying position in the sport.

$35-40m for one season is a lot of goddamn money to start jerking around with the team like LeVeon Bell did.

That’s cool and all but Wilson wasn’t even in the league when that CBA was signed and nether was Bell
