Daunte To Leave Dolphins?
Tt is time, once again, for Daunte Culpepper to leave. After a reported deal to bring in Chief's quarterback Trent Green in for a 5th round draft pick, the Dolphins have told Culpepper they want to get rid of him, telling him they "are going in a different direction at the QB position."
The one-year Dolphin played in 4 games last season, not playing the other 12 because of knee problems. Culpepper was traded to the Dolphins from the Vikings for a 2nd round choice, after Culpepper had surgery on three torn ligaments in his knee in 2005. Since then, he has never been back to his full ability.
Green also is coming off of a rough year, playing in only 8 games for the Chiefs. Green suffered a severe concussion that kept him on the sidelines.
