I mean, he had essentially fallen out of the DB rotation so it's not surprising that he would feel this way. From the outside looking in, it seemed like they were attempting to give him every opportunity to earn a spot in the rotation giving him looks at both safety and at nickel, but maybe from his perspective he saw that as setting him back? Who knows. Now as a fan I'd say there's a reason for for all of this. Namely that he's not a good DB and he's a liability anytime he's on the field, including special teams. But, I'm sure he's a proud guy and as a former 3rd round pick I'm sure that he believes he has more to offer.

Time will tell, but I just don't think he's an NFL caliber football player either as a DB or as a special teamer.

He’s got to put on a brave face but who knows. Daryl Worley has a better PFF ranking than Bradberry, Donte and Reid. SMH, defensive genius coach my ass. 

Would you put that in the category of saying "this team sucks, I need to get out of here"?

Just looking for clarification...

I'd always be hesitant to theorize that somebody was trying to get themselves cut.

Still...

I doubt he was trying to get himself cut, I just think that it's very plausible that he isn't exactly disappointed about having the opportunity to find a new and potentially better situation for himself.

There's also the possibility that he's simply trying to take a positive outlook on a negative situation. Going home to cry into your pillow thinking woe is woe is me isn't going to do you any good.

That what i liken this situation to the most . I think he will be better with another team . We never gave him a chance here . I think he can be solid but we will see. Of course I’ll fans will trash him just like we did with Worley . Who got all the blame from Ron and company . Those guys (coaching staff) don’t know talent if it was right in their pockets

      a look at our 19 udfas

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.

      Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
