I would say the same thing about any player, simply for the fact that i just dont care what billionaires do with their money.
If Clark Hunt wants to pay Berry because he feels it's the right thing to do, then so be it.
At the end of the day though, i believe berry's salary will be cut and he'll be on the NFI list.

Clark Hunt can compensate Berry in other ways, such as hiring him to do P.R. or in the front office or sign him to a personal services contract and so on.
I don't think that anyone is advocating that the Chiefs turn their back on Berry. But the fact is that he has a non-football illness and the Chiefs can most certainly use the $5 million in cap space. Also, I find it very unlikely that a player of Berry's status and contract doesn't have disability insurance, which would likely pay at least 80%, if not 100% of his salary.
