With NBA free agency in full swing and mid-level players making inordinate amounts of money, the yearly discussion about guaranteed contracts has once again surfaced. When guys like Aaron Gordon and Will Barton are signing $84 million and $54 million deals, respectively, NFL players get understandably frustrated.

After all, Tom Brady’s base salary is just $15 million in 2018, to put things into perspective.

So what has to happen for the NFL to join the likes of the NBA and MLB when it comes to guaranteed contracts? Todd Gurley has one idea: a player strike.

When asked by TMZ if NFL players should get fully guaranteed contracts, he gave a resounding “yes” as his answer. His suggestion for getting there is a lockout.

“Lockout. Lockout in a couple years,” Gurley said.

Many believe a lockout is coming in 2021 when the NFL’s CBA expires, thus paving the way for new negotiations between the league and the player’s association.

Lockouts aren’t unprecedented, either. The NFL had one in 2011, which lasted five months and led to the Hall of Fame game being cancelled. In 1987, the 24-day strike caused the season to be shortened to 15 games.

Gurley will be in line for a new contract in 2020 after his rookie deal expires, but perhaps he’ll wait until 2021 to see how CBA negotiations go.
