Did Richard Sherman negotiate Scandrick’s contract for him? Only $1M guaranteed?!
Yea, he’s pretty terrible. I’m shocked he got that much guaranteed.

Considering the original report was that he signed for 2 years and up to $10M I think most Redskins fans are relieved it turned out to be “only” $1M.
*only $1M guaranteed
