Patton, he's probably going to get cut in June. And it's hard to imagine him laying low between now and then.
I think what's most likely is that a team offers him a restructured "prove it" 1-year deal at like $15M, which we then trade and get something. For example, with the Steelers (Since it looks like DK is gone) or KC (they could desperately use a guy like BA. Or with the commies (he loves their qb). Etc
If something like that can't be worked out, I think we will post June 1 cut him. The team will likely hold onto him until the last minute, June 1, before making a move to hope a team caves and works a trade.
BA is incentivized to try and help get a trade cause if he has to wait until june 1 to get a deal, a lot of money and rosters are set by that point. He has a better chance getting the best offer he can early in FA.
That's just my perspective on it. Then again, it's shocking he gave up all that money over whatever he's butt hurt about. He's super talented but always seemed overly sensitive to me. Especially on the "pivot" podcast.
