So, if he is tagged, and he really isn't going to play under it, he has two choices. Sit out and make whatever amount of money you get for that, or accept whatever the Chiefs long term offer is, probably 60/5.

He will take that deal every time before he sits out the season and loses market value.
He'd play under it at $13 million, which is why his representation is pegging that as his baseline.

I don't think the Chiefs are in a position to pay him that.
