I'm talking about as a negotiation tool. The RB wants a guaranteed contract but the team is reluctant to offer much in terms of guaranteed. They could offer a 4 year contract with a large salary and they could purchase a large insurance policy payable to the RB if he should sustain an injury that ends the career and he gets cut early in the contract.
