Jimmy Graham’s teammate stands by his comments; Says he is still soft
Michael Bennett of the Seattle Seahawks is the biggest loud mouth in the NFL, and he is still calling Jimmy Graham soft, even though he is on his team.
“I still feel the same way,” Bennett said, according to the Seattle Times. “Just because he’s on my team I don’t stop feeling that way. Obviously I’m going to be a better teammate to him because he’s on my team. I can’t do the things I was doing to him when we were playing him.”
“But obviously when he comes to our team he’s a part of our team so we have a different philosophy than they had with the Saints. So the things he was expected to do with the Saints are going to be different when he comes here.
“Obviously we are a running team, so he is going to have to block and do all those things. I don’t feel as harsh as I did at the time because he’s my teammate now but at the time he was on the opposite team and we battled with him a couple of times and I didn’t really like that too much.”
