Maybe if this guy sits long enough without a job, he'll learn some motivation?

Browns release veteran linebacker Jamie Collins
Collins' release was hinted at during the NFL Scouting Combine when Dorsey acknowledged that the linebacker's play didn't align with his high salary.
Collins remains talented, but disappeared far too often, missed too many tackles, and authored too few explosive plays for a highly paid linebacker. In 2018, the 29-year-old compiled 104 tackles, four sacks and four passes defended.
The Browns acquired Collins in a midseason trade with the New England Patriots in 2016 for a third-round selection. The subsequent offseason, Cleveland inked the linebacker to a four-year, $50 million contract. He made it just two seasons into the deal. Given the high expectations, after 30 games in Cleveland it's fair to consider his tenure a disappointment.
