Thats amazing for Lewis to do that. Real character. Question is how much gaurenteed money is Clements owed after this year because I have a feeling he will be released and the signing of our other players ex. vernon, goldson, smith is looking more possible?

Clements is owed next to ziltch in guaranteed money because his contract did not have a signing bonus and was structured as a front-loaded contract using roster bonuses. He'll be easily cuttable if the team decides to go that way.
