Dalton wanted to be traded last year when he was benched. That's not a team player who is thinking about the team. That is someone thinking about his own well being more than the team.
He also stated that fans that want the Dolphins to win are not true fans. He knew that if we won that game we probably would not have picked first and got Burrow. That means he was fine with us not getting a much better qb in the draft and improving the team substantially. That doesn't sound like a team first player to me.
Dalton is a me first individual and team second. I won't say he's a quitter but he certainly is not some team first guy who only thinks about the team and not himself.
He should have been sent packing 5 years ago after 4 straight horrible playoff performances and numerous chokes in prime time. I'm just glad he's finally gone and we can start a new era with a far better qb. At least we now have a chance to win a Superbowl. With Dalton we had no chance to win a Superbowl.
That comment really rubbed me the wrong way.
