Tee is THE perfect #2 to Chase's #1, so there's no mystery as to "why" there. Guarantee Burrow at some point demanded they find a way to keep them both.

It's just too big of a resource drain. You have to have a semblance of a little balance these days. If, IF they can retain Hendrickson, they could have a shot. But if not, nah, they're done before they get started. They'll be a 35ppg offense and have a 10-7 record that gets them bounced in the wild card round 45-41.
