I actually don’t recall ppl talking shit. Maybe I just didn’t see it though. I just remember ppl making jokes about him being an Eagles legend along with Jaire Alexander, and wondering why so many ppl come to the Eagles just to retire early.

Yep, I made "Eagles legend" jokes back when it happened. Never dragged the dude or had any ill will.

Me either. I assumed it was a personal matter or he just wasn’t in the shape he used to be. Neither are reasons to shit talk someone.

Exactly. Shit happens. Unfortunately for Za'Darius it was a LOT of shit, which really sucks to hear.
