Broncos owner Pat Bowlen would be obligated to pay the balance of Shanahan's three-year contract at approximately $6.5 million per year.

Why on earth would Shanahan go along with this? He's going to burn up a 20 year friendship - not just between him and Pat Bowlen, but their families as well - to give the billionaire Hunt family salary relief - all the while making only as much as he would have going to the golf course every day? Get real.
