3. He does not renegotiate and they release him

There is no way the Colts absorb a 29 million dollar cap hit on him and no other team will give up much if they need to absorb the lions share of that hit. Teams and Pittman know that if he does not renegotiate, the Colts will release him and he can sign with any team he wants to at a cap friendly amount.
It depends on whether they plan on signing Pierce. If not and he leaves, Pittman will be back.
