I don't like the way it all went down, first off. We'll never know and all that, but I just have the feeling he wanted to opt out and the Rams found a counter to it he agreed to because he'd get more money. Then there's the medical side with his heart or whatever and will his cardio ever be where it has to be during this season to help us out? I doubt that.
The really big DL like him it's all about their fitness. And I see no reason to think he's going to be fit and ready. Maybe next year. But boy would I love to be wrong on that.
What's the connection with the way it went down and whether he'll play well? Are you thinking it means he's just playing for money?
Another perspective is that the Rams found a counter precisely because they feel he will be a big cog for the defense when he does return. An elite run defender on the DL is nothing to sneeze at.
