Status Of Vernon Carey
08/02/2011 19:49
Vernon Carey did not practice during the open practice last night at Sun Life Stadium because he was given a personal day by Tony Sparano. This has lead to speculation that Carey is upset about the Dolphins wanting him to restructure his contract. When asked about the situation Tony Sparano shed some light onto the status of Carey saying "You know better than to ask me that question. At the end of the day, anything I talk about with my players I'm going to keep in house here. But I gave Vernon a personal day last night. That's all I'll say about it. He and I are going to visit again today at some point." For all of you that don't know Carey is owed about $7 million this year and, although good, is not worth that much anymore.
This is causing fans to become a little worried about the offensive line that has been shuffled around so many times in the last couple of years and has never had time to gel and work together as a unit.
As of now Carey is still a Dolphin and most likley will remain a Dolphin but you never know how things can work out.
BREAKING NEWS: Vernon Carey has been asked to take a pay cut so the Dolphins can make another move (sign or trade) and is reportedly very unhappy. Check back for updates or check my twitter @TFost2. I will update this when I know what happens
