That's the thing, his cap hit is nothing, he can sit at home and it means basically nothing to the Colts. Hold out, stay home, collect a decent pay check, and watch the NFL march right by you. Next year, we have no obligation to do anything other than post highlights of his replacement. Dude / agent, does not understand this game, he will push himself out of the league with a hold out vs increasing his market / value.
I suppose he could show up, play a couple games, claim he is injured and then sit out so he isn't in violation of his current contract. Of course everyone talks and every owner / GM will know what he's up to- and thus rewarding him becomes even more unlikely. Slippery slope, very slippery.
Either JT or his agent are really stupid, perhaps both of them...
