And it's IN THE CONTRACT that teams can cut players. That's why players negotiate for guaranteed money.
TO thinks he's so valuable to the iggles that they'll cave. I very much doubt that. The iggles, like the pats, have been solid at keeping the team above the individual player.

Last year T.O. signed the contract with the Eagles and was just so happy and thrilled he didn't have to end up playing for the Ravens 
This year the contract is not acceptable .....go figure.....maybe the Iggles should trade him back to the Ravens.
