He may have, but as we've seen with players who leave the Bengals on lousy terms there seems to be a pervasive "Normally we wouldn't condone your actions, but you were trying to get away from Mike Brown, so we understand" feeling in the NFL.  It's not like the Patriots or Cardinals signed Dillon/Palmer with clauses that allowed them to get out of the deals on the chance they immediately decided to go flip burgers or retire immediately.

Mavin's agent probably leaked this so they could judge interest while Marvin could half-assedly deny it and if Mike Brown cared to run a real NFL franchise he'd have Paul Geunther as the HC for the last few games.  Nope, rather than do that Mike Brown was shocked to hear a guy who looks like he's dead inside might want to leave.  This is interesting stuff, I tells ya.
