I wouldn't either. If he's going to take a paycut then he can say no to the Jets, force his release and play for less money on a team of his choice. It would be stupid for him to just accept a paycut for that sorry team when he can play for a team he wants to play for.
Play for less money on a team of his choice? Yeah playing on the Seahawks and Vikings when they were decent sure tamed him. Percy only cares about the money, what team he "plays" for is irrelevant. I doubt he even plays much in the future, his fake injuries will again reappear when the money is in his bank account.
What does playing for Seattle or Minnesota have to do with a business decision? Then you follow that with reinforcing my point. He's not going to get the same money on his current contract because the Jets won't pay it. All he has to do is refuse a pay cut, get released by the Jets and then pick which team he wants to play for out of the teams who bid for him. He's going to get paid less no matter where he goes so why not do it for a team he gets to choose?
I get the sour grapes, but that doesn't change the fact that refusing a paycut is a smart decision for any player in his shoes.
