    Sammy Watkins on pay cut: 'How much money do I need?'

    Sammy Watkins took a pay cut to stay in Kansas City in 2020 and make another run at a Super Bowl.

    In an interview with SiriusXM NFL Radio, Watkins said that he prioritized sticking with a winner over chasing more money if he'd have been released by the Chiefs, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports.

    "I'm at the stage of my life now to where, at first I was like 'Man, I want to get paid big money again," Watkins said. "But then I realized, how much money do I need? My family's taken care of well. Do I want I go to a team and lose, and get 1,000 yards or go to a team that's sorry, whatever the case may be. Or do I want to come back with one of the best coaches, the best quarterbacks, the best organizations, the best team, the best wideout group -- arguably -- and come try to fight for another championship?

    "I sat my AGENT down, and we was trying to shoot for these big (contract) numbers. And I'm like, 'Man, let's just take heed of winning. I've been on a winning team within three years. I know how it felt to win. Shoot, I'd rather win another championship than go get another whatever type of crazy extension or crazy contract."

    Yea you have to admit if he is really of that mindset it shows a person that isn't impacted by greed. Although winning in the playoffs adds bucks to your pocket
    Wait until next year is a terrible philosophy
    Hope is not a strategy
    RIP
