Why would Ricky leave Dynamic's guaranteed $1 million?

It seems that Ricky is guaranteed $1 million for the final year of his Dynamic contract, which is well above the current market value. I understand why Dynamic would want out, but if they can somehow get out then I don't see how they could have described his deal as guaranteed. I don't see why Ricky would want out since it would mean taking a significant pay cut somewhere else. I feel like I'm missing something with all the rumors about him leaving.
