NFL Player Bullied Off Team

[TaylorCTU]

Martin left Dolphins headquarters on Monday when finally reaching his limit with the persistent bullying and teasing from some teammates that has plagued him since joining Miami as a 2012 second-round draft choice. As first reported by FOX Sports NFL insider Jay Glazer, the latest taunt – a group of players stood up and left when he tried joining them for lunch – led to Martin getting up himself and walking out the door.

It was also said they have been calling him names and doing other pranks. There is no timetable for his return. What do you guys think. It must be pretty serious for a grown man to give up big money to leave the team. He may have some mental/emotional problems I'm not sure.

Yeah I saw this shit yesterday. Sad because it probably got bad if he left the fucking team.

How sad that there are grown men in a professional career are bullying another teammate.

That's so fucking dumb. Honestly, leave the bullying and drama shit in high school. Now obviously these players are grown ass men and it must have been pretty serious if he left the damn team. The coaches and front office need to look into this and kick the motherfuckers off the team if necessary. They're teammates for God's sake. Some people are so immature. I feel bad for the guy, he's probably living his dream playing in the NFL only to have it ruined by a couple of assholes.

Maybe, he also had a hard time in school and it was too much.

It's sad to see grown men bullying people, I hope the guy is ok.

Sad & Disappointing to see this happen with grown men. We have commercials on TV about Stop Bullying etc etc etc jammed down our throats, when we have 20-35 year old MEN doing it? Ridiculous. Their supposed to be a team, a brotherhood, a family. I feel bad for Martin.

 

[RIP Mocking]

fucking pathetic imho , why bully when ur like 30 , something wrong with some people i swear.

 

[Poe]

Wow that's sad, I can't believe this..

 

[Solar]

It's awful to see that bullying can continue on into someone's career. Those "teammates" should be ashamed.

What a freakin baby. Its called hazing and if your going to play at a high level you have to deal with it. I started playing Varsity hockey as a freshman and i was hazed 24/7 so were the other freshman on the team. We had to do everything from picking up pucks to cleaning up the locker rooms and if the upper class men saw us in school and we were talking to someone a girl or guy they would just publicly embarrass us. its not that big of a deal considering I knew it would end, and it really helped me become close with the guys on the team. This guy is a baby he just couldn't handle it.

Its called hazing. Everyone goes through it. If i was on the team id be glad this guy left considering he isn't able to even handle this. Its stupid and everyone goes through it, you just have to deal with it.

You become that "Team and Brotherhood" through these types of things. These are what bring people closer.

I disagree with this. He's playing in the NFL, do you think he's new to high level leagues? He knows what hazing is, he's both received it when he was new, and given it out when he was the top player on his college team. This doesn't sound like regular hazing but extensive actual bullying/abuse.

Even at the highest levels this occurs. Its a test to see if you can with hold and if you can you are welcomed in, if you can't well then you leave like he did. Its fully acceptable in my eyes.

That organization should feel ashamed of themselves. Thats terrible, that you have grown men bullying at that age.

They've been kicked off of the team. Thank God. How low of them.
