2022 Commanders off season thread part 1

So what do you guys make of Payne reportedly walking off the field to protest his contract situation ?
It's a bit unclear what's happening there, Ben Standig reported he walked off the field on Tuesday, Payne tweeted he didn't "walked out of practice", Allen came to his defense... And then Ben reported Payne wasn't at OTA's on Thursday.

Did I get this right ?

Anyway, I won't get mad at players for trying to get leverage in contract negotiations. But I sure hope this won't be a lingering distraction, this defense needs some cohesion.

This is the new normal for players trying to get paid.

If he did it like this, I fully support him:



Otherwise, not ideal, but no big deal either.

Something seems off with Payne and his relationship w/ the front office. They paid Allen and made him a company man, yet w/ Payne nothing. He isn't in any of the promotional stuff, none of the tv ads. He wasn't in any of the stuff for the shitty rebrand and no new contract. I think that has to get to him, he's human. He sees what's going on. They don't value him like they do Allen.

Not to mention they drafted his replacement this year

Not sure about this - they may have drafted a replacement for Settle and Ionidis, Not Payne.

For this year sure, but he's clearly earmarked to be the next starting DT next to Allen in '23. They didn't use a 2nd rounder for a rotation guy.
