It's legacy money at this point. Hoping to keep him in the fold in one way or another.

You can bet if it was a lowly RB with a limited history with the team, that Irsay would be clutching back that money as soon as possible.

If Irsay wants to refund fans himself, he's more then capable of doing so.

I also don't understand the "how dare he one week before the season starts" mentality I keep seeing all over the place.

Dude was hurt. He wasn't going to be playing opening day, with a good chance he might have been forced to sit the season out anyways. Brissett had been taking the 1st team snaps all preseason.

Did fans get a refund for the entire 2017 season that he missed?

This guy took a beating, and if anybody cares to check out his college highlights, his playing style indicates he's been taking a beating for a lot longer then just his NFL career.
