NFL Players Frustrated by NBA Free Agent Contracts

With NBA Free Agency underway one can’t help but to notice some of the ridiculous guaranteed contracts being awarded to average players. Well, a few Washington Redskins have noticed it too.

Safety Duke Ihenacho and defensive end Chris Baker chose to show their frustration on twitter.

All this guaranteed money NBA throwing. Meanwhile the NFL, which generates the most money wont even make the league minimum $1M

Most def playing the wrong sport. Lord why did you make me 6’3 and not 6’9 so I could be in the #NBA I want guaranteed contracts

I feel their pain, but the NFL gets it right by not guaranteeing contracts.
