He plays a position where just the mental side could keep him playing at a high level for 5 more years and I could see his knee injury giving the Chiefs leverage to negotiate a cheap contract. If the Chiefs get dj below 5 mil and especially way below 5 mil, which I think they can, that's still a great deal even at the back end of his career.

Gotta disagree about DJ, its hard to see him recovering well enough at his age to approximate what he was... and for FIVE more years?
All emotion and romanticism for his lifelong career here aside... this is a young mans game and the next DJ is out there somewhere just dying to be a pro for a lot less money.
