He ran halfway across the field to hit Watkins (and I have no idea why he wasn't suspended for that; I guess the refs decided kicking one player out for the fight was enough). He did something like that the last time we played them (which is when I started to feel like-"hey, that guy's an asshole"). Pulling up the Brinks truck to training camp is a bad look.
I feel like you have a real agenda here; I don't. I just think he's an asshole. He's a talented player, and if the Chiefs go get him, I just hope 1)we don't have to give up more than a #1, and 2) it's a rental thing and we flip him for that #1 back after the year.
Given his temper tantrums (and dude, there have been several) it just looks a lot like more of the Marcus Peters nonsense to me. That kind of shit tends to escalate.
I also don't like the precedent of players just getting to demand to be released or traded and acting out until they get their way. I mean, what, every good player on a shit team can just demand to be released so they can go play for a Super Bowl favorite? I don't like it. It ****s with the balance of the game.
You can see it differently, that's your prerogative.

For years and years the teams have had all the leverage with these guys, walk away without paying them, franchise tags etc etc. If a dude doesn't wanna be somewhere he does have a right to voice that.
