Wow, this is a great move by the Cardinals. They are said to have him sign a deal with no guaranteed money but guaranteed drug testing.

It's really the smartest thing to do. He got his last and final chance, which is good that he got that. He doesn't deserve a dime though.

If he and his agent agree they are idiots.

I would bet money PP can help keep his head on straight. This is the absolute perfect place for Tyrann. He idolizes PP.

This too.

They need to bargain and say he will be drug tested as frequently as they want, but he gets guaranteed money if he never fails a test.

Its just like the Darrell Revis deal execpt the reason for no guaranteed money was bc Revis was coming off injury no drug testing but lots and lots more money in his deal.

Revis has already made millions. He is also a veteran which means he will collect a pension for the rest of his life.

That would be incentive money not guaranteed.

I doubt the NFLPA will allow this move even if both parties agree.

yes

I guess "incentive" is a better word. I just feel like incentives are based on on-the-field performance and not passing drug tests.

I meant guaranteed money regardless of on-the-field performance IF he passes every drug test (which they can do as frequently as they wish)

I will guarantee that if you give him money, he will smoke weed.

The Cardinals got the biggest steal in the draft with Tyrann. Its the only team in the NFL where the off the field issues don't matter only his measurables.

Peterson will keep his head on straight. If he stays away from home and drops his shitty friends we won't hear another peep about his off the field issues.

I promise you that is already in this contract.

Guaranteed would mean by signing the contract he makes money.
Incentives are: int's, games played, drug tests passed, passes defended, avg punt/kick return yardage, etc.

Come on folks.
