The Miami Dolphins can’t even get through
the current, invasive investigation without
news of yet another one popping up.
The NFL Players Association has launched its
own inquiry into the team’s bullying scandal,
according to multiple news outlets. The effort
will be led by Richard Smith, who captained
the union’s look into the Saints’ bounty saga.
Smith plans to explore team management’s
role in the alleged abuse, USA Today reported.
Efforts to reach the NFLPA for comment
Tuesday were not successful. The Dolphins
declined comment.
By the time Smith comes to town, Dolphins
players will be well-versed in speaking to
attorneys about their internal workings.
They have spent the past two days talking to
NFL investigator Ted Wells, who has peppered
players with an exhaustive line of questioning.
Wells’ interviews have been so detailed that
one player who has been through the process
likened the experience to being on the true-
crime reality TV show The First 48 .
So while most Dolphins players haven’t seen
much of Wells since he arrived Monday, they
have sure felt his presence.
The music in the locker room was turned down
Tuesday. Crude language has been sanitized.
And for those who haven’t yet been called for
a sit-down, there’s been an unease not seen
since cut-down day.
Wells, tasked with investigating Jonathan
Martin’s allegations of workplace harassment,
has been tucked away in Dolphins
headquarters since Monday, summoning key
players, coaches and staff who might have
pertinent information to his case.
Instead of cycling through the entire roster,
Wells has focused mostly on the Dolphins’
offensive line, which is where the alleged
abuse occurred.
Players questioned have no advance warning.
Instead, they’ve been tapped on the shoulder
and essentially been told to go the principal’s
office.
“I’m not too excited about it,’’ said lineman
Sam Brenner, who hadn’t yet been interviewed
as of mid-afternoon Tuesday. “They say be
yourself and be honest.”
Wells, a respected New York-based attorney,
has much to sift through — a pile that grows
larger by the day.
The National Football Post reported Tuesday
that Richie Incognito’s alleged boorish
behavior was not limited to his teammates.
Incognito and at least one other player
“mocked the ethnic background of a team
staff member and made crude jokes about the
staff member’s wife,” the report stated.
Furthermore, the behavior reportedly occurred
in front of other members of the Dolphins’ staff
but was not curtailed.
Incognito remains indefinitely suspended, one
of three starting Dolphins offensive linemen
currently unavailable to the team. Martin,
obviously, is another.
The third is Mike Pouncey, who missed
practice Tuesday as he continues to recover
from the health issues that kept him out of
Sunday’s game against San Diego.
NFL.com reported Tuesday that doctors are
mulling removing Pouncey’s gallbladder, but
hope to avoid it with medication.
It is unknown if Pouncey will be well enough
to play this Sunday against the Carolina
Panthers. If not, Nate Garner would likely
again get the start at center. Brenner started
at guard with both Pouncey and Incognito
missing.
Garner only got 15-20 practice snaps at
center in the week leading up the Chargers
game, and didn’t learn that he’d be starting at
that position until Sunday morning."
