A sauce bucket.

0:11.6

If they sign Jennings to a multi-year deal, does that signal they're not keen on committing

0:16.1

to Addison long term?

0:17.3

I don't think so.

0:19.4

I would look at it more like, oh, they just really love Joanne Jennings and they want

0:25.2

three really good wide receivers and wide receiver depth because Addison has been banged up.

0:30.9

And if it was a two-year deal, then that takes you through when Addison will be on his

0:35.4

fifth year and they'll be able to decide. But it might be, if it was longer than that, then it would almost be strange. Be like, what a four year deal? What? You know, that would be crazy. So I don't see it being any more than one or two. And if it was more than one or two, it would probably be a fake third year or a fake fourth year that we see all the time in the NFL.

taking less.

1:15.7

And what about next year when teams get very antsy to look for wide receivers in free agency

1:21.5

and you've got 48 catches for the Minnesota Vikings or whatever it might be.

1:25.9

So I don't know that he will sign for more than a single year.

1:29.7

If he does sign multi-year, I would guess it's only really two.

1:33.8

But I mean, I don't think that the timelines really quite match up.

1:38.5

There might be a world where if Jennings signed a two-year contract and then this year, Addison has more issues,

1:46.2

and let's not mess around about last year either, he was not at the same level.

1:52.1

It was not all JJ McCarthy's fault that he didn't play at the same level.
