Tenner ain’t coming in with $10mm+
The crazy thing is Underwood's deal was 10m over 3-4 years ($2.5-$3.3/season). Looks like a bargain compared to the supposed $5.5/season we're paying for Leavitt.

Well it appears that this is going to just be an auction. At some point one of the teams will say nope, too high and the other team gets a bum foot player who may or may not play next year. Ain't America wonderful!

And Underwood can renegotiate simply by entering the portal, lol.

Where do you see he may not play at all next season?

Its completely made up on this board by guys thinking its 1999 with Lisfranc injuries
His own doctors timeline is he's good to go in May.

Underwood not only got a bag last minute on him he’s from Michigan. It’s free market at work right now, Sorsby signed for 5 plus million and that reset the market. Only way this stops is collective bargaining and schools do not want what comes with that can of worms. They have RevShare, when it comes to NIL it’s other people’s, corporations money so who cares, the schools aren’t paying for it. Way less headache than collective bargaining that’s for damn sure.

that was not for 1 year though
what has happened the last 2 years unhealthy
I think we're fast approaching a space where the money people say, nope, he aint worth it- if someone else thinks he his, then the fools spend thier money
"he hasn't won a championship, so we're not paying him champion MVP money"

Sam Leavitt — Right foot Lisfranc (plant foot) breakdown
Because Leavitt is a right-handed QB, the right foot is his plant / drive foot. That makes this more limiting than a trail-foot injury, especially for velocity, stability, and pocket movement.
?
Why the plant foot matters
The plant foot is responsible for:
• Transferring force from the ground into the throw
• Stabilizing during dropbacks
• Hard stops and re-sets in the pocket
• Explosive push-off when escaping pressure
Lisfranc injuries directly affect midfoot rigidity, which is critical for all of that.
?
Phase-by-phase impact
1. Early throwing (8–12 weeks post-op)
What he can do
• Seated throwing
• Standing throws with a narrow base
• Short, controlled mechanics
What’s limited
• Full lower-body drive
• Torque through the plant foot
?? Arm strength may look fine, but ball velocity and consistency lag until the foot stiffens.
?
2. Mechanics return (12–16 weeks)
Progress
• Full throwing motion returns
• Better rhythm and timing
• Increased reps tolerated
Still limited
• Sudden re-planting
• Throwing while drifting or resetting
?? Coaches often say the QB “looks normal” throwing — but movement throws are restricted.
?
3. Footwork & dropbacks (4–5 months)
This is the most critical window.
Allowed
• 3–5 step drops
• Controlled rollouts
• Light pressure simulations
Delayed
• Hard plant ? reset ? throw
• Escape + throw across body
• Sudden stops on pass rush
?? This is where plant-foot Lisfrancs separate from trail-foot recoveries.
?
4. Explosiveness & trust (5–7 months)
Key milestones
• Sprinting off the right foot
• Hard vertical plants
• Pocket slides at game speed
Mental factor
• Even when medically cleared, QBs often hesitate to fully trust the plant foot
• Confidence usually returns after repeated high-stress reps
?
Hardware removal factor
If Leavitt had planned screw removal (~4–5 months):
• Short dip in performance (2–4 weeks)
• Often improves comfort and push-off
• Many athletes feel “looser” and more explosive afterward
?
What this means for his calendar
• Spring practice: throwing looks good; movement is managed
• Early summer: biggest jump in performance
• Fall camp: should be fully functional
• Week 1 readiness: realistic barring setbacks
?
Bottom line
• Plant-foot Lisfranc = slower movement return, not slower throwing
• Velocity, pocket reset, and escape throws are the last pieces
• Timeline still aligns well with full availability for the season
