If Revis had staged a holdout, three years would have been added to his deal, something he said he and his agents discussed. If he had held out he would have lost his $1 million reporting bonus and would have been fined $30,000 a day. More than the fines and contract issues though, Revis knew if he held out his reputation would take a hit. If the Jets struggled, he would be the public scapegoat.
