If he wasn't mentally tough enough to compete for a job, why would he be wanting to hit the open market looking for an opportunity to 'compete' for a job. It would be much easier for him to just stay put, cash the checks and not have to compete at all. Sorry brother, I just don't get your logic on this one.

He had the opportunity of competing for the starting spot with Joe Burrow. Did he try to take advantage of that opportunity? No.

Were the Bengals going to trade him someplace he didn’t want to go? No.

Do you think he would have approved of a trade to a team where he would be a back up after publicly stating he wanted a trade to a team to be a starter? I don’t.

Now he gets to pick and choose the opportunity for the least amount of competition to become a starter.

Carson wasn’t traded until right before the trade deadline in October, so the Bengals still had about 5 months to still work out a trade.
