      Same here I just literally heard and I’m in the U.K. Totally shocked. A very good player for a very long time. His brother Vernon was on the Broncos for a year and there was a moving scene where before they played each other in 2015 they dapped each other up and embraced. By accounts they were close. Rip Vontae and condolences to the Davis family.

    Classy organization the Dolphins are... they could have told him another team wanted him instead of saying ‘we don’t want you here because of your inconsistency’

      On the flip side, if they sugarcoated it, you'd have even more people up in arms about the fact that Davis is a man and should have been treated like one. It's a tough discussion, I think they handled it well.

      @@JP-jn2yx I'm not saying to sugar coat it. It was a fact that another team (Colts) wanted him enough to trade their draft pick for him. In fact, they had to wheel and deal for him. Why couldn't they tell him both sides of the story?

      @@Will-jn8vq the actual reason he wanted to call his grandma is because she was a fan of the team he was being traded to, also after this he became a pro bowler so i wouldnt worry abt it, i dont think he was sad tho probably just shocked and honestly happy.

      Yea your right about that, alot of coaching staffs need to be fired because its countless cases of where a gifted player is traded or released from the league just because the team that drafted them couldn't bring them along properly so they get shunned by the rest of the league shit is ridiculous because it is tarnishing the game theres more gifted players on the street then there are in the league and it all boils down to the league giving up on them smh
