Ummm the link says it all..... .bitchindave.com.... what a silly article.
It's my understanding all guaranteed money was forfeited with the suspensions. He actually owes Miami money.
Not saying this isn't true . . . but just goes to show you that there is so much confusion in regards to terms in his contract that I don't think anybody knows exactly the situation financially.
Only one thing is certain . . . his base salary is around $600,000 this season if on the roster.
That clause calls for the Dolphins to pay Jordan a $1.69 million bonus to keep him. Otherwise they have to cut ties somehow.
Well, multiple reports are saying that bonus is moot. One report said it is no longer owed. That is not factually true. The Dolphins would still owe it. Another report said it is no longer guaranteed. That is more vague and closer to the truth.
What I am hearing from a source is that the Dolphins do indeed have that clause hanging over their head.
But I am also hearing that Jordan has a responsibility for having to return $3.35 million in signing bonus money he got as the No. 3 overall selection in the 2013 NFL draft. Jordan has to return that portion of his singing bonus based on his multiple suspensions. And, I'm told, that money has not been fully returned yet.
And so, as the player owes the team nearly twice what he would be owed as a roster bonus, in actuality he's not getting a dime of that bonus because he owes the team more than they would owe him. The Dolphins are going to keep him on the roster anyway.
So that big decision on the fifth day of training camp has already been made, as far as the Dolphins are concerned. If he's reinstated today or by Friday, he will be on the roster until such time that 1. He makes the team. 2 He doesn't make the team and is cut. 3. He is traded.
who's invested too much in him? he hasn't seen the field for the current organization, you would be better off saying they've invested too much in the players who are at practice every day to cut one of them for someone the last organization drafted. the team has no investment in jordan.

You've obviously never understood the concept of a "sunken cost". You don't throw good money after bad.
Tell that to Stephen Ross.
First thing I thought of was since he had no contact with the organization any procedure would have to wait until his return.I know nothing about suspension regs but does "no communication" also include medical procedures?
