why would he take a pay cut?
A. Because he's gonna be 35 and coming off a major injury that could possibly limit his effectiveness.
B. Because we draft a replacement knowing that he is not a long term option anymore.
C. Because he's a nice guy who will do whatever it takes to help the team, including taking a pay cut (let me rephrase, a pay maneuver that would allow the team to have some short-term cap relief used to improve the team elsewhere).
D. Because the aforementioned point is a common move in the NFL for teams that need short term cap relief.
E. Because he's a nice guy, the kind of guy who will go out of his way to help his replacement even though he knows it means the end is near (ex. 2017 with a certain Patrick Mahomes).
F. Because he might know even if he does make it back, the odds of him having a long term future here as a successful qb after a devastating injury are slim.
