Russell Okung's contract contains zero guaranteed money. So he basically decided to take a long-term, big money contract over a lesser deal that at least included some guranteed money.

I mean, I guess I have to applaud him for being willing to bet on himself like that but for a guy with his injury history it probably would have been better for him to guarantee himself some sort of income. He could shred his knee in training camp and wind up never making another cent in the NFL. Very risky.
