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

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
