Can this be right?

According to the talking head, Taylor said he could have returned the calls but figured that since it was the offseason, he didn't have to.

Did I hear that right? Did Taylor ever say anything nearly that stupid? Or is this some kind of grotesque misrepresentation?

If he actually said anything close to that, then Sean Taylor has retired the trophy for MEATHEAD of the DECADE. If he didn't say anything close to that, did he say something remotely pertinent to why he never returned the head coach's phone calls?

That's essentially what he said, but also in another interview expressed that he made a mistake in doing so.. At this point the OTA thing is over and done with in my opinion. The players don't seem to care, they're happy to have him, Williams is being the hammer by leaving him on 2nd team for now but when the season starts you can figure he'll be out there with the starters. Other than mini-camp, I think the whole OTA thing is just off season media fodder.. Even a couple guys said that most of what he was missing was weights and conditioning anyways, it seems like he was doing that himeself..
