No one other than Darlington denying the story.
I would trust the guy who works for NFL Network and was in London and never reports BS other than a guy in Houston and wasn't there, Barry Jackson who also wasn't in London and is piggy backing off the Wilson story, and PFT who is piggy backing off both of those stories.
First this supposedly happened at a practice on Saturday (they don't practice on Saturday's)....now Wilson is changing his story to a late week practice (he can't even give the day this happened and he broke the damn story), and no other Dolphins player ...who by the way all go public to say how Coyle stinks and Philbin doesn't know anything and this team leaks all the dirt on everyone.... has gone public to badmouth Tannehill and support this story.
AND you have Yahoo saying the story is 100% false. If this is true its gonna take more than a beat writer for the Houston Texans who covers the Texans 100% of the time, somehow breaking a story about the Dolphins who were in London to give this story any legs at this point. It makes zero sense and everyone else who has reported this "story" is just piggy backing off the Wilson story and adding nothing new and just quoting his story.
The only thing "new" on this story I saw is from FOX who said, most NFL teams tell the scout team and practice squad players to go easy in practice because they aren't showing off for the coaches for themselves, they are pretending to be that weeks opponent and doing what that specific team does that week does. So if your (just for example) Cedric Thompson and your lining up pretending to be Revis. And the coaches say Revis leans left every time to push the WR to his inside (just making this up for example sake) so when you are covering Landry or whoever the WR is, lean left and push them inside, so the offense will see today in practice what it will see Sunday in the real game (ya know help them prepare)...and then when the practice squad/scout team guys go ROGUE and lean right knowing Tannehill will probably throw to the inside cause of what the tendency Revis does and he is working off the info that the guy opposite him is pretending to be Revis and cause you expect the scout team to do what its told, well of course you will pick off the pass and look like a superstar, you know what's coming.....but you aren't helping the team prepare for that weeks game because you aren't doing what you are supposed to do which is mimick Revis (in this example)!! Your job in that role is to help prepare the first team offense that given week.
