Now if Trent actually doesn't show and actually does shoot himself in the wallet and sit for principle (I don't believe it) then my praise of Allen is premature. But if Trent really intended to go to war in order to free himself from the Skins I think he'd be speaking out.
Allen is playing this game of chicken properly. He knows he holds the cards.

That's why he is smirking while talking, he knows Trent has to show up to get paid.. Yeah he's made great $ in his career but that is still a ton of $ to be leaving on the table..
Also Trent has 2 years left right? There is no chance he sits 2 years lol lets be real here and he knows that too. By the time that comes around he'd be 33 years old and not played in 2 full seasons... Nobody would want him.
Trent will show up before week 3 that's my guess.
