MKnight82 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 https://nesn.com/2017/12/josh-norman-hints-at-leaving-redskins-while-sounding-off-on-his-team/ If you read the article Josh Norman talks about how he wants to win a championship. He also apparently has an opt-out clause in his contract this offseason. Its possible he decides to leave the Redskins, and we would get nothing for him leaving other than some newly opened cap space, and a huge need at #1 CB. If Cousins leaves I say there's 100% chance Norman opts out. Why would we even sign a contract like this with a player option? This is like an NBA contract.

I think it doesn't apply if he's cut. If he opts out of his contract, he becomes an UFA. H's free to sign with any team. So I think we get something.

Dashing202 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I don't think he will leave . We aren't far from being a very good team had Jackson and garçon stayed along with Mcvay we would of been 11-5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lavar703 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I think the reality is a lot of players were duped by this organization. They interviewed and signed with Scot, not with the intentions of Bruce and Dan running the show. Norman is a passionate guy and wants to win. I could see him opting out and re-signing with Carolina now that Gettleman is gone. Dan isn't going to get it until Bruce runs everyone off.

Ghostnote Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 He won't leave this coming season, unless Kirk leaves. I don't think he would want to wait for a young QB to come along or watch the team struggle with Colt McCoy. Frankly, if he wanted to win a championship, he could have gone somewhere like New England, Pittsburgh, Green Bay, Seattle or somewhere where there are perennial playoff visits and taken less money, if that was his "true" goal.

turtle28 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 If he’s smart he’d get out and sign for one of this year’s playoff teams in March. I think he stays one more year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A TRAIN 89 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Let him walk if he wants. $20M AAV can be use to fill many spots for this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More McClain and McGees? Bruce doesn't like to spend in free agency so the money we save from Norman will be used on a bunch of teams back ups that are forced to start here.
