Now, my example is from an amateur perspective.  From a professional perspective, he get's paid to play FOOTBALL.  He should be ready and willing to play wherever his team asks him to line up, and collect his game check just the same.

I would imagine future discrepancies In pay LT/RT>RG/LG along with ego play a great part in his dissatisfaction and unwillingness to be a "team player".

So sad but true.
