Many wondered what the hell the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were doing when they replaced Kellen Winslow this off-season with Dallas Clark. It was a questionable move to go along with their firing of head coach Raheem Morris as well.
Well, apparently, it is Winslow’s fault of why he was cut. He didn’t attend OTA’s. His reason?
“Real sh-t? Real sh-t?” Winslow said. ”Greg Schiano came over there [and said], ‘Toes on the line! Toes on the line!’ Blowing the whistle. You can’t laugh. You can’t joke around. So I decided not to go to OTAs.”
On the Bucs’ side of the view, they say that they told the tight end not to come to the OTA’s. However, judging by this, it’s clear why. Like, seriously, man?
Winslow also decided on leaving after Morris was fired.
“They got my man [Raheem Morris] up out of there,” Winslow said. ”I was loyal to him. I’d take a bullet for that dude. So I had to roll, man.”
Winslow said Morris wasn’t a “company coach,” but a player’s coach. ”They fired the wrong dude up there,” Winslow said.
Winslow now serves as the tight end for the Seattle Seahawks. I really wonder what his father has to say about this.
