Quote:5 million if he gets the insurance, ~8 million if he gets drafted late in the 1st, ~20 million if he goes back to school and rehabs/returns to top 10 next year.

 

Wouldn't be the first time someone has gambled on themselves and paid off big. We'll find out in less than 2 weeks.

 

The one thing is that this may essentially be a whole season of rehab, so he may not even see the field at Notre Dame again. I don't think his stock will rise to where it was prior to the injury if he returns to school. It's unfortunate for him since this effectively cost him $10 million in guaranteed money and it will be interesting to see what his decision is.
