Quarterback Ryan Tannehill was rattled during Saturday's practice, and it led to him belittling some practice squad players, according to the report. After some of them forced turnovers, the $95 million quarterback reportedly said things like, “Enjoy your practice squad paycheck, enjoy your practice squad trophy.”


This has reportedly been going on for weeks because Tannehill is frustrated with the Dolphins' lack of success. Philbin reportedly told the practice squad players to take it easy on the franchise quarterback so as to not affect his confidence moving forward.

That whole franchise is a dumpster fire. I can see where his frustrations are coming from but he's got 95 million reasons to keep his mouth shut.

Tannehill sucks. At first I thought it was the coach the Dolphins just fired but I have actually watched a lot of Dolphins football this year because I drafted Tanney in one of my leagues and he fricking blows.

Wow! You just can't root for a guy like this even if you are an Aggie.

What was the context of the jabs, was it because a practice squad corner picked off a pass when he the play and talked shite to Tanney, or was it just Tanney going off, makes a difference, just sayin......

1. The original source here is an anonymous rumor. This would be deleted if it was a report about a Les Miles sex scandal.

2. I honestly don't believe it. This is literally unprecedented when it comes to Tannehill's behavior.

3. Wrong board, dumbo.

If you know Tannehill even a little, you'd recognize that comments like these are nuts and would be completely out of line for him; you wouldn't buy it for a second.
Multiple reports countering this tale have already emerged, along with players indicating that they know zero about it.

These are the manufactured rumors that turn into nightmares when you're on a bad team.
But I understand how it makes for sexy Internet fodder.

If true, not in character for RT at all. Dude is pretty damn mild mannered. Can't remember him ever talking shite at A&M and he was a part of some heated games.

I don't really believe it's true, but I really wish it was

Tannehill is a nice dude, met him once. He needs a little bit more of cocky douche aspect to him, the type that makes you hate him, but also the type that most clutch QBs have. Tannehill is extremely talented, but he lacks a clutch factor. I don't know if 2011 just did a number of his confidence, but he's only had 8 4th quarter comebacks and 5 game winning drives in his NFL career. Half of these were in 2013. I don't know what it is but when he plays I just don't see him having "it", as subjective as that may be.

This all is coming from a lifelong Fins fan, btw
