So ... that's it? An offer (that we don't know all the specifics of), a counter (that we don't know specifics of), a counter-counter and done? Are we to assume that 'can't reach an agreement' implies that that's it? (I don't have a subscription to The Athletic, so can't read the article.) Wow, I've been involved with many negotiations over the years, and they have all taken more than that. If that truly is it, then, hmmm.
