I don’t know if it was his agent that told him he was worth more than he is worth or he demanded the 22 million a year. But the team offered him 19 million on a short term contract then he wanted so he had every right to turn it down. But the bottom line is he was not worth 22 million and no team was ready to pay him that. So the best thing he can do is play under the tag in hopes for a trade next year

Players want guarantees in their contract. We don't know how much of that 19 million per year were guaranteed. He also wanted a long term deal which is the same thing that any player wants. Coughlin walked away from the negotiating table after giving them is only offer and that soured Ngakoue and his agent. Why wouldn't it?

Coughlin has screwed over this team twice now.
