He has a tendency to talk a lot to the media with criticisms of the team or front office. He was very vocal about not wanting Ricky Williams back and said that the locker room would never accept him. Bill doesn't like kickers in the first place and sepecially not mouthy kickers. He isn't good for the locker room (not that anyone in the locker room pays attention to a kicker). Secondly, he is hurt and tony Sparano is making a big deal about players being able to play and not hurt. I honestly believe that is why Zach Thomas is gone. He is a hard working, overachiever that Bill would like, but can't stay on the field. He's big on people that are continually get hurt being gone. Put a mouthy kicker that is hurt together with a young kicker in Carpenter that has hit his field goals in practice and the pre-season game, and it spells curtains for Jay. Jay is quoted as saying he was expecting this because his meetings with the FO this offseason have been "edgey".

Interesting note, I played peewee football with Dan Carpenter.
