When I watched the highlights on the NFL site I was amazed how Peterson actually ran away from the play on the screen pass. People can toot his horn as much as you want but when the game is on the line and you purposely take yourself out of the play there is no excuse for it. Once again, Peterson claims to be a leader on the defense yet on plays like this and I am sure it will stand out when the game film is reviewed by the team, you see your captain not even trying to make the tackle then you can pretty much say to yourself if that is our captain, a leader on our defense taking the easy way out why should I put myself in harms way especially if I am nearing a contract renewal or will be a FA shortly. Her are some interesting notes on his contract. His dead cap hit is quite small in 2018 and almost non existent after that.

After the 2017 season there is a footnote as follows.
POTENTIAL OUT: 2018, 2 YR, $20,000,000; $4,976,141 DEAD CAP
Does this mean he has an out here or is it just the team? Is this correct?
