I played in the early 60s and back then you played for the one next to you hurt or not you where on the field. Of course, back then you really did not have the money machine and really I was just average high school player anyway. Yes, I understand money talks but to me, there is more to life than a big paycheck. Just different times and understand why he did what he did. If it he were a game for a natty I bet his butt would be on the field of play. That's more of my point too many worthless bowls.

Lol. I knew that would be your response as I was raised the to think like that plus being former Navy I couldn't ever leave my teammates but the times have evolved. This kids are making multi-million dollars that can change their whole families. Deebo has had quite a few injuries and didn't want to risk it in a meaningless bowl game. Playing in the senior bowl raised his stock and probably raised his future income by a few million. If we were playing for the championship I guarentee he would have played.
We didn't hear his teammates complain so who are we as fans to speak up?
