From the episode

Sam LaPorta publicly stated on Barstool's Pardon My Take that the Lions are "not showing him the love" and that he is "cool playing elsewhere," saying "in three months, if I don't get to wear the Honolulu blue and play for the Lions anymore, it's going to be all good. I'll go get paid somewhere else." This in-season contract dispute signals a potential breakup and suggests LaPorta may not accept a re-signing discount if he leaves the team.
