Mike Brown specifically referred to the contract negotiations as "foolishness," indicating frustration over the inability to finalize terms with Shemar Stewart. He emphasized that this situation is unprecedented during his tenure with the Bengals, stating, "From our vantage point, it's a form of foolishness. It just ought to get done." Brown pinpointed the disagreement over contract language concerning conduct detrimental to the team as the core of the delay, describing it as the sticking point that continues to hinder the signing process.
