The saga continues as Darrelle Revis continues to sit out of training camp demanding a new deal to make him the highest paid cornerback in the NFL. I can’t help but think Revis is throwing his dummy out of the pram a little here.

He is still in his rookie contract, which he signed and had no problem signing at the start. He is guaranteed $1million this year, and apparently by sitting out he has waived a clause in that contract guaranteeing him a hefty $20million over the last 2 years of his contract. If reports are to be believed he is currently getting fined $16,523 a day for every sit out. Surely he is the one worse off here?

I believe that Revis’ valuation of himself, and the New York Jets valuation of Revis are miles apart. I just can’t see them forking out 16million a year for him, certainly with the CBA situation as it is. If anyone else can afford him, we might very well see a trade happening before the season begins.

Despite his current attitude, I still hope that Ozzie Newsome and John Harbaugh are keeping their eyes on this. We could do with a good, healthy corner in Baltimore.
