His was worse than Smollett. He blamed an actual person, not two racists who didn't exist.

 

[Shanemansj13]

This contract will probably look good in 3-4 years especially if he puts up beast numbers but still a lot of money...damn

 

[ATL96Steeler]

I'm not ready to just pass off his actions, but he's paid his price...time to move on.

He's helluva player, but hasn't quite earned those kinds of numbers...just his time.

 

[Battlelyon]

If I'm an offensive lineman playing against him, I'm calling Myles Smollett all game, trying to set him off.

Yeah but it is a future move, trying to get an early jump on the market. He has 30.5 sacks in 35 career starts. I mean pretty solid, don't know how would compare to his peers and/or veterans.

 

[PEOPLESCHICKEN]

Hope after last season he has grown up some. Time will tell I guess

Make sure your helmet is strapped on tight.

How do you know what he said wasn't true?

I don't, but given the guys who had his back immediately, his O-line, the other players around him didn't see anything.

Then why compare it to Juicey Smollet?

Except that Rudolph is a real person who really instigated a fight

I couldn't care less about the helmet swing incident anymore. Time to move on. The only thing I cannot get over is his race-baiting bullshit which I don't think we've heard the last of. We'll never know what was said during that scrum (thanks to the NFL not releasing whatever audio may have been available), so its pointless to slander someone like that and he should feel very fortunate that Mason didn't sue his ass for repeated defamation.

Myles Smollett is a helluva player, but a trash human being. Does he deserve the contract? Not yet. But there's no way the Browns were going to let him walk without an extension. I do think he's more than capable of playing up to it if he can keep himself out of trouble.

Mason is an asshole. But I'm not buyin that he's a racist asshole.

So adjusted for suspensions about $13M per...

Could not agree more on a race BS.

He's clinging to it because he has no where else to go. If he backs off it...clearly a Smollett situation and he loses any credibility he has in his own locker room.

IDK if he's going to live up to this deal or not...but he's the DEF player, arguably the best player on the team overall so the Browns had to tie down this contract.

 

[Stakesarehigh]

Myles definitely needs to never bring the incident up again and if he's asked about it tell the reporter he's moved on.

 

[douggie]

Not great at math but how much is that per helmet swing anyway?

 

[YankeeRebel]

What's done is done he lived out the terms of his punishment people need to grow the fuck up and let it go. I think the contract is fair.
