Oh, I'm sorry. Did you misunderstand? No, Duke Ihenacho doesn't care about Josh Normal getting paid. Well, he kind of does, but only in the sense that it's sure to put money in his own pocket too. Hey, it's a cutthroat business out there. Ya gotta do what ya gotta do to put food on the table, and that 1 year, 1.6 million dollar contract is leaving Duke a course or two short. Seems a little silly for him to care more about profiting off his current number than his team improving, but playing for a winner doesn't pay the bills unless that winner employs a cornerback that makes 15+ million per season and has an undying devotion to the #24. Either way, nothing prolongs negotiations like an insulting original offer. Take whatever figure you had in mind and double it Josh, because Duke is not unfamiliar to how much you love that 2-4. There will be no beating around that bush. He's probably going to be sharing a secondary at some point so it's best you don't fracture that relationship before it starts by lowballing the backup strong safety. Oh yeah, and the Redskins have a tradition (totally not tarnished by their team name, btw), and play against Odell twice a year. You know, in case you needed another reason to go there besides your favorite number being on sale for the steepest of prices. P.S. According to my research (one Google Image search), Duke has already worn at least 3 different jersey numbers for the Redskins. Looks like he's got pretty good timing.
