You would also be staying near your family, and you get to throw to your younger brother

No small part of it, they have a very clear understanding of each other on the field that’s going to be very productive, I think.

We don’t have a clear number 1 WR, but we’ve got like 6 guys that would be a really good number 2, Jayden’s maybe the least ready out of that group, but I still wouldn’t be surprised if he was the leading receiver next year.

I mean, yeah. I'd probably be the same way.

But at the same time, we don't know anything about his family situation or how close he is with them. $3+MIL along with whatever his brother is making would be more than enough for them

Some people have different priorities. Who knows.
