TJ Watt got $108m in new money guaranteed at signing.
If the Bengals are allegedly only offering guarantees on the first year of the extension. If he doesn't sit out then there's zero chance he gets what he's looking for, in which case $8m to sit out 8 games is peanuts compared to the new guaranteed money difference.

I don't think he'd do it, but there's also the chance he practices/plays and immediately gets "hurt". Then he doesn't play because he's not "healthy" and then doesn't give up any money.
