I covered last year's harassment scandal. I saw Daunte Culpepper hand out press releases about himself to the media to fight the team's position that it was cutting him in 2007. I reported on the disagreements between Dan Marino and Jimmy Johnson and covered each of their departure pressers in the wake of 62-7.
And today I witnessed the most bizarre locker room session in my career.
Mike Wallace, benched in the second half by coaches after he had a disagreement with a coach and, by extension, Ryan Tannehill, declined to speak to the media after the game.
But only sort of.
He asked Brandon Gibson to handle the questions to him so as to avoid not saying the wrong thing. This is not a new Wallace approach. His first game with the Dolphins he was upset after the game for not being targetted and refused to talk to reporters.
That was not a good look and Wallace obviously realized it. So today, he adapted. he didn't talk. But his sentiments got out there through Gibson, who stood shoulder to shoulder with Wallace answering the questions directed at Wallace.
