He'll get suspended, hurt or go on a crybaby protest against Parcells in his driveway sometime this year.

Barring injury, you have to figure TO for 16 games. I don't think he deserved it, but the c-boys signed him to a rich guaranteed contract. He gets his money whether he catches 1 ball or 100. So he has no reason to pout.
With the Eagles, he felt certain things were promised to him and caused a lot of drama when he didn't get it. He wasn't really complaining about the offense. It was all about the money. With an incentive contract, no balls = less money. Dallas took that off the table.
In addition, the CBA threw out the Eagles discipline approach. Sooo, guaranteed money + no multigame deactivation = TO 4 16
For the record, Drew Rosenhaus handled another Pensylvania WR who wanted a new contract. But Hines Ward did it the right way. He remained a team player, let his agent do all the talking and ended up Super Bowl MVP. I believe he's still with the Steelers !!!
