"To me, I just feel like, as a player, people have that expectation of you being professional, handling business," the veteran NFL player said on "McCoy & Van Noy" with his co-host Gerald McCoy. "And in a time of need, I wanted that from them, and I felt like I didn't get it.
"Because then you get into, like, 'Did they take their time because I'm a Ravens player? Blah-blah-blah-blah-blah.' Those are just the thoughts that go into it. I don't think it was that. But at the same time, I don't want them to come out and apologize. It is what it is. Like, it's all good. I don't need them to come out with a press release and say they apologize, 'We take care of our players, blah-blah-blah.' I experienced it."
