Tennessee Titans: Marcus Mariota has all the leverage
Training camp is now three weeks away for the Tennessee Titans, and for some reason, rookie qb Marcus Mariota is still unsigned. Well…actually…we do know the reason, we just don’t understand it.
At least I don’t.
As we’ve preciously discussed, the road block is offset language. In a nutshell, Mariota’s camp wants Tennessee to pay him the remainder of his contract should they release him and he’s signed by another team. But that’s not the way the Titans do business. In fact, Tennessee has never put that language in a player’s contract, and seem weary to set that precedence.
The only problem with that is, Mariota has all the leverage.
