I am not saying I want him. I can just see where this could be a good deal for the team.

You're missing the point.

McLain said he want's the play for a REAL TEAM.

That $4M base salary next year IS huge, in terms of leverage. He needs the Chiefs even less than they need him.

If he reports, they're going to use him for 5 games and either cut him or force him to take a pay cut. Either way, he's not getting paid $4M next year.

He can accelerate the process by refusing to report and in the process, ensure he doesn't have to play for a clown show like the Chiefs.
