IMO, the team should've identified possible disgruntled players and off-loaded them during the offseason.
We all (well most) knew that AJ Green should've been gone. That said, you know some of these guys who have been here over the last 5+ years have dealt with a LOT of losing. Only natural that cracks start to show. It happened all through the 90's. People get sick of losing.
That said, you don't want those disgruntled vets to pitch a public stink in front of our young guys. Sets a bad precedent that this franchise isn't to be respected and doesn't know what it's doing.

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
