That's a completely unrealistic expectation
Jets signed the contract, they gotta deal with the ramifications
Revis doesn't wanna play anymore though. It has alot to do with desire too.
He's made mad money..
He ain't tryin to hit people he's making business decisions on the field now as well as off the field

T.O. Didn't get in on the 1st Ballot. He had the 2nd greatest WR resume in the history of the game.

Maybe I missed it but how is it any different than owners ripping up a players contract and forcing them to take less money or get cut. Or forcing the player to renegotiate the deal to start (i.e. Kaep)?
It's pretty unfair to ask a player to hold true to the contract while their employer doesn't. Especially in a sport as violent as football.
T.o
Was hated by writers and media. Revis isnt.
So what he held out? Get as much money as you can, especially if you're getting concussed.
Get off your high horse (if it's possible)
That go for the teams who can rip your shyt up at a moments notice too?
You're a terrible poster.

FLORHAM PARK -- This season hasn't been kind to Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis.
Darrelle Revis among those to blame for Jets' loss to Patriots
From receivers routinely beating him on Sundays, to questions regarding his effort mid-play, outside of a jersey number and name, he resembles little of the player he used to be.
But Revis isn't exactly thinking of hanging up the cleats. At least not yet. After a report surfaced Wednesday saying the corner "doesn't want to play anymore," Revis fired back.
"Where did that come from? What source?" said Revis, who added he's under contract until 2018. "I don't know, either. Really nothing to discuss when it comes to reports here and there about my career and what not.
"People talk and say these things. I don't know."
The subject of Revis' future with the Jets has been a hot topic as of late. Combine his declining play, with high 2017 price tag, and it's easy to see why a divorce could be on the horizon.
If Revis is on the roster next year, he'll have a cap hit of over $15 million. If the Jets release him before the second day of the new league year, however, they'll free $9 million of it. There's offset language (details here) to alleviate some of the remaining $6 million.
Is Wilkerson really healthy?
Maybe Muhammad Wilkerson just isn't healthy?
Revis, who is actually under contract through 2019, but guaranteed money runs out in 2018, seemed potentially receptive to taking a pay cut. When asked if he'd be open to it, he said "we'll see."
Then again, the Jets may never ask.

While Revis showed signs of decline last year, his regression from 2015 to 2016 has startled many. It isn't just the best of the best abusing Revis, but anyone listed as a receiver.
It started with the Bengals' A.J. Green, then became the Bills' Marquise Goodwin. Kenny Britt (Rams), Terrelle Pryor (Browns) and Malcolm Mitchell (Patriots) have all taken their turns, too.
Where's the Jets pass rush?
The strength of Jets' team really hasn't been all that strong this year.
Revis has gone gone from arguably the league's best defender, to defensive liability, awfully quick. He's not an exception, but a big reason for the three-win Jets' struggles.
"It's a down year," Revis said. "It's a down year for the team. It's a down year for me personally. I've been in this situation before where it's just not the year for us. For me personally, my focus is on the future of this football club."
Between the on-field struggles and off-field controversies (local media have routinely taken their shots), this season hasn't been the norm for Revis.
When asked if the entire experience has been frustrating, though, he abrasively declined.
"Uh, no, actually not," Revis said. "It's actually fine."
