Bahktari in 2024 ain't shit.

Bahktiari was going to miss a lot of the early season coming off a serious injury. No one was going to offer him a 20 million contract for half a season? Not even the Jets.
I believe I heard this on Sirius, possibly "moving the chains". I like that show the most.
For the record, I am NOT advocating for this. I am just pointing out that if a Brake glass in case of emergency situation should occur after the trade deadline, D Smith is not the only option.
