there are a LOT more cowards than I thought there were.

A lot are financially savvy as they are on 1-year contracts. Thus, if a person is contracted to make $2 million this season (which is at risk of being cut short), they may make a lot less than $2 million if there are only a few games prior to being cancelled, then their contract expires. If they opt out, the get $150k and make their full $2 million next season. If a player is struggling to make a team (like Alan Hurns) they get $150k this season and prolongs their career by another year whereas if they are out of football next season, they probably make a lot less than $150k as the enter their post-NFL career
