The issue here is that the football czar of this team is the [BLEEP] king of the "do as your told days" and Ramsey doesn't want to play for him. 
All that "empowerment" stuff is going to be addressed in the next CBA for better or worse, but RIGHT NOW, how do we resolve this chasm between a star player and the elder statesman of the entire organization?

That's for Khan to figure out and if I had the answer, I'd slide right into Khans DMs to tell him.

The issue is that multiple situations haven't been handled well and Ramsey has said that it's been brewing for a while. Most likely it stems from

1. The defense carried the Jags in 2017 and yet Bortles got the contract extension. Seems smart.
2. Yan wants/deserves a new contract and nothing.
3. Ramsey wants a new contract after seeing the dudes drafted in front of him get one and he was told there would be no discussion. (incoming "He signed a contract and should abide by said contract until his duties are no longer needed" crew)

I wish this would be resolved and somehow Ramsey could stay a Jag (and hopefully Coughlin "retires") but I have no clue what will happen. I just hope the team is as distracted this week as they were last week.... They played great!

Because AB and Ramsey are the same guy...... 

AB is clearly insane and yet he got how many chances? And he will most likely get another one.
