Lughead Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Chad Jones waived I hope he clears waivers so we can IR him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Teams aren't required to pay a player any of his salary while he is out with a non-football injury. I didn't know that. Hope he comes through healthy but it doesn't seem like anyone knows right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxRik Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Thankfully he's still alive, hopefully he'll be able to walk normally for the rest of his life. He got $826,000 and hasn't done anything but graduate college. Take the money, invest it as wisely as you can these days, and do whatever it is you majored in while in college. Be smart, Chad, not many get that kind of financial boost at such a young age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishgutmartyr Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 Wouldn't he have some coverage through the NFLPA? I really don't know. I recall reading the Giants were going to cover it, but who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxRik Posted July 31, 2010 Share Posted July 31, 2010 How much of that winds up in medical bills/rehabilitation? It was a car wreck, so hopefully his insurance would cover a fairly large chunk of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
