Well, he gets service time whether he plays or not, so why not sit and get paid next year? If they franchise him, it will cost them 25M, so they won't. He's not a super stud, but the money being thrown around he'll probably walk away with 20-25M guaranteed, much better than the 14M the Steelers were going to give him and push him to 400 touches. Once it was known that they really had no intention of meeting his demand, there is no incentive for him to play.
