because I believe that leadership is key on a football team, right?
00:04
And there are guys out there that may not be the guy
00:07
he was 100 percent made when he was young, but he's older now.
00:10
And he understands the mental aspects.
00:13
He knows how to prepare.
00:15
And that person can help the rest of your team get better.
00:18
And to be honest with you, I can see giving a man Wagner
00:24
deal with some money into the second year,
00:27
because I think he is much more valuable of a person in your locker room
00:32
and a leader of your team than he is just a player.
00:36
Because all those dudes listen to him.
00:38
Offense, defense, special team, hell, coaches.
00:43
You and you find carries himself in a special you find a glue person
00:46
of that caliber who still can play at such a high level.
00:51
Yes, I see that.
00:54
Chin, we already discussed.
00:57
As I begin to look at other guys on the squad.
01:02
I can't sign a one year, two year deal. One.
01:08
I like that might be a two.
01:09
I mean, I like I like Eckler.
01:12
I think that injury concern, you know.
01:15
I mean. As a veteran player, you learn how to
01:20
adjust to your deal for Eckler.
01:22
No guaranteed money.
01:23
Yeah, yeah.
01:24
So if you're Eckler and you're a veteran player with no guarantees on that.
01:29
You're looking for to get something else.
01:32
Considering the seriousness of the two concussions in a season.
01:38
Would that impact you
01:40
going into a year with no guaranteed money?
01:42
He's only 30.
01:44
But I mean, the players are always concerned about
01:47
that make a different concussions or not.
01:50
If you don't have no guarantee, that's a worry.
01:53
You know, that's one more thing you worried about.
01:54
Instead of going all out, you start thinking about who I don't have a guarantee.
01:58
Now, that said, if you're Austin Eckler.
02:03
Like, it's easy to say these things.
02:05
But think about, oh, he might walk away, right?
02:08
He ended up coming back this season when a lot of people didn't think he would.
02:13
Playing this year, Austin Eckler stands to make three million dollars.
02:18
And a five hundred ten thousand dollar roster bonus per game.
02:23
Like what? What does that add up to help me with the matter?
02:26
Five hundred and ten.
02:29
Thousand dollars per game.
02:31
Per game roster bonus is what it said.
02:34
That's that's what he's making, though.
02:39
Just telling you what the language says.
02:44
See, maybe it's capped at a certain number.
02:46
If it's five hundred and ten thousand dollars per game,
02:49
he messes around and play eight games.
02:51
You're talking about well over four million dollars right there.
02:53
I get it. And I.
02:56
I'm saying that we believe that that's one that.
03:00
I don't know of a team we want to.
03:02
I don't know if they really like how many games you played this year.
03:07
Eleven ish. I'll pull it up.
03:08
I don't know. So that's the extra.
03:13
Twelve games this year.
03:14
Well, that's six million dollars.
03:16
It must cap at something. I don't know.
03:19
So, I mean, that's that's one we have to look at to see exactly what it is,
03:24
because that's hell.
03:26
Believe me, they wouldn't know I have a concussion.
03:29
Filing a $10 game.
03:33
I had some roster bonuses that weren't I had some game,
03:36
but they weren't that high, but hell, I didn't miss.
