At the end of the day it cost him 8 games if another team was going to trade for him and start him next week AND assuming he doesn’t end up starting again for the Bengals this year.
The team was under no obligation to trade him just because he got benched. A real competitor would not just give up, although it makes a lot more sense why Marvin never benched him before or brought in any real competition if he is done the second he gets benched during an 0-8 season.
He said he understood the benching, he was just upset about the timing because he wants to play. He's played the good soldier, then made the scapegoat....well it appears he feels that way. So, he wants a shot to play.
Shit happens behind the scenes. Good people get fired or ****** over on a promotion every day out here in the real world. Some lay down and take it, others go work for the competition and get theirs. I know what I do.
