Schweet! It seems Priest wants to stay and play. It just don't get any better than that folks.

Ahem

With his inability to remain healthy and LJ's emergence, that would clearly be the right thing for him to do.

Incentive clauses for carries, yards, etc. would offset the pay cut if something happens to LJ and Priest ends up carrying the load.

Sweet.

it definitely seems as if he might have seen the writing on the wall. In very big letters...

This still leaves room for him to retire in June.

Why would he restructure if he planned on retiring?

Isn't that what Gannon did?

To help the team out, a few other players have done it as well.

that was my first thought, but base salary isn't guaranteed so there is no reason to mess with it unless you were really expected to play...

JBucc · 03-03-2006, 07:29 AM

Awesome

**morphius** · 03-03-2006, 07:44 AM

I like the paring of these two, if not done in that you get two series and you get one. I'd be hard pressed not to use Priest at the goal line. Of course if we lose TRich I may have to change that stance.

JBucc · 03-03-2006, 07:51 AM

So with LJ still on his little contract and Priest doing this we now might have the cheapest best RB's ever!!

StcChief · 03-03-2006, 07:57 AM

Good for Priest....go out as Chief.

Help the team with that massive cut.

Hope nothing happens to him in these remaining years.
