3) He has the same agent as Peyton Manning and Manning also went year to year for several years down the stretch.

4) There would not be an $18 million cap hit if by some miracle he was to leave on his own. The contract voids after 2017. Its conditions for guarantee only apply to release or trade. It also contains a no trade clause so that cannot happen.
