Most NFL players are worried about getting a call from the front office at this time of year, dreading the familiar pink slip that will send hundreds and hundreds (and hundreds) of players to the unemployment line over the next few weeks.
Robert Golden apparently made the call himself to the Kansas City Chiefs powers-that-be.
In an odd series of tweets on Wednesday night—and perhaps before?—Golden made it clear that he had left the team that signed him earlier this spring. The messages clarified that it was his decision, that it was about a bad fit and that he seemed quite satisfied to walk away.
