I just think that he's going to want to renegotiate his present contract, he also knows that 14m is unbelievably low for a franchise QB.

Because this is his LAST contract and last chance of maximizing his earning potential. What did the colts pay rivers this last year $25 million? And he’s going to settle for less?

Stop living in fantasy land and join the real world. This is about playing football and getting paid and if you’re going to risk your ass you might as well get paid well

If he's able to do what he does on the field in that kind of shape, getting him in an NFL strength and conditioning program will be even more advantageous than I'd originally thought. Obviously workout bonuses should be negotiated into the contract.

My guess is the 4.0 GPA and Master's degree in 4 years while being the starting QB on the best team in college football for 1.5 years of that.
