That's not true. Jay Glazer reported he was asking other players to get him out of Cleveland in 2019. MKC mentioned him possibly being moved in April of 2021.
Players and coaches will always say the safe and correct thing...until things start not going well. Same thing happened in NY. He didn't want to be there and he didn't want to be traded here.
Players treat this as a business. I doubt many players would've cared that he preferred to be elsewhere as long as he kept showing up every day, which he did until he forced the issue to get out. Even after he did that, I'm not surprised he has allies.
But make no mistake - he 100% quit on this team.
Odell didn't quit on The Browns. He just didn't believe in Baker as a QB.
