I guess the last line of that is a bit confusing. I'm not sure who's in control of the contract, Arrington or the team.

"If Arrington opts for free agency, the Redskins can force him to remain under contract by paying $3.25 million."

It sounds like it means that we have the option to keep him by supplementing his salary with that 3.25 mil.

Yeah, I wondered the same thing. If he voids the contract, does that mean that we will only owe him $3.25 mil that year?

So theres a very good chance that he wont end his career as a Skin? These contracts confuse me.

If Lavar voids his contract he will become a free agent and the Skins will owe him nothing.

However the Skins can choose to keep him by paying him the $3.6M as a bonus, and his current contract would remain in effect.

If the Skins decide to keep him I'm sure there will be a new contract extention.
