Well, looks like lazy quitters also think putting on the uniform isn't worth it. Needs a culture change of getting rid of/not signing questionable people. It has started, just need to go all out.
Marvin did change the culture some. The culture is reset now.
When you hire your 6th choice as a DC...the players see that and laugh about it and I takes some wind out of their sails.

But, it would appear as he would certainly deserve it, if there were such a disciplinary condition in NFL speak.
That's why NFL owners should actually try to make their franchises not suck so they can actually punish players by trading them elsewhere. Sadly, the NFL version of being sent to Leavenworth would be being traded to the Bengals.

I can just see Belicheck telling his young players that they better "Do your job", or I'll ship you to Cincinnati for a bag of peanuts and a bowl of chili.

Hell, this whole situation started because Cordy Glenn was traded to the Bengals...we are football hell. Even crappy NFL teams have some hope that they'll go all in on a boom or bust free agent or players there can at least get free gatorade and not have to practice outdoors all year.

Ideally, the time to decide to do that would have been like 1995. After sucking for 30 years...the perception is hard to change!
Heck, even they got rid of Marvin 3-4 years too late.

Isn't there some sort of "permanent suspension" list that is different from just releasing the player.
The Reserve/Left Squad list would apply in this case.

Trade him and anyone who doesn't want to be here and you can get anything for. There is zero point to prove by hanging on to him. Trade him, move on and hope the guys who stay buy into the system

At what point do you question the "leader" of the team these guys are supposed to be motivated to block for?
Shows how much they think of Dalton.

Dude, if you are blaming this on Dalton your obsession has taken you over the edge.
You need to seek some professional help.

So we can fill his roster spot but still control him.
That is exactly what I was wanting to hear.
BTW any news on if he returned today?

Anyone have the Athletic? This headline makes it look like Glenn showed up...but could just be clickbait:

Taylor said he did not show up Monday. Not heard about today.

Other articles say he’s back on the roster (waived Zettel) but hasn’t reported. I’d imagine that’s what they are saying

Most likely. I don't see him giving in although his agent may make him report and not participate.

Day to day? I'll tell you where its going to go Zac.
Glenn practices the least amount with minimal energy this week. Starts Sunday in London. 2nd offensive play, Glenn walks off the field self reports a concussion--BAM--out for the rest of the season...
The only thing I hate worse than Pittsburgh football...
...is Pittsburgh fans!!
SLIM--gone, but never forgotten...

How bad do you have to be at football to be on the bungles practice squad? Asking for a friend

With Billy Price now a backup and Cordy MIA, this may end up being as big a dud first round as Ogbuehi...it was an earlier pick and thus far has generated next to no positive impact. Simply amazing. I was really hopeful Price would shine as a guard, but I think someone would have been ranting about a PFF ranking if he had.
