Sua Cravens

The Redskins announcement didn't exactly make it sound like Cravens would continue his career in Washington. It referred to him continuing his career in the National Football League.

This is such an odd situation.

What also surprised me is that the statement didn't mention any personal issue.
If feel like if there was something legit the team would've add something in the tone of "we wish him well", wouldn't they have ?

So could this actually simply be about not wanting to play football anymore?...

Watching game at the bar and a Skins fan said word is Allen told him (Cravens) that he can't come back this year now. He didn't provide a source so not saying its for sure true, but I'll be interested to see more details.

Watching the 30 for 30 on the Redskins scab players. Just started, this should be awesome.

Why would he say that? If Cravens wanted to come back and Gruden was cool with it, that would be good enough for me. Is this Allen having another "I'm in charge" moment? Why would it be different now than 2 weeks ago?

This is so messed up.

Like I said, its just heresay now, but I wouldn't put anything past Allen. I'll be following the updates closely. Hopefully this isn't true.

I think it makes perfect sense. How are you supposed to expect he doesn't run off again? I mean he did it in college, he went AWOL last year, and then this year he just abandons the team when they aren't in position to replace him?

Besides to the big, "fuck you," that he gave to the team, you can't afford to waste those reps on a liability. What's to stop him from doing it again later this year, and then you don't have anyone who has practiced this defense.

I would have made the same decision, and said you have a spot here, but you have earn it back. In life you are completely in your right to make these kind of decisions to drop obligations if you need to, but these decisions have consequences regardless of intention. Tough lesson to learn, but well worth learning.
