But now, the Cincinnati Bengals want to rewrite that deal. They’re trying to insert a clause into first-round pick Shemar Stewart’s contract that would allow them to void his guarantees if he’s suspended, arrested, or judged to have engaged in conduct "detrimental" to the team − even if that conduct is a misdemeanor.

On July 25, Stewart and the Bengals officially agreed to a fully-guaranteed, four-year, $18.97 million deal that includes a $10.4 million signing bonus, a person with knowledge of the contractual details confirmed to USA TODAY Sports' Tyler Dragon.
