I'm thinking he left the sidelines because he was pissed about being benched. What a great first round pick.

Damarious Randall's benching, injuries bring issues for Packers, even at 3-1

In addition to a slew of injuries that made the postgame mood following their 35-14 win feel like a bit of a downer, they have a major issue with former first-round pick Damarious Randall. The third-year cornerback got benched to start the second half and then did not stick around on the sideline to see the end of the game.

The Packers wouldn’t say whether Randall left on his own or was told to leave; all they would say is he did not sustain an injury.

“It’s an internal matter and we’re working through it,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said after the game.

I guess The only thing to do is 'Blow this team up"!
Fire Ted Thompson.
Or
Have a little talk with Randall, let him know he must grow up, or he will be on the unemployment line.
Drop him to the bottom of the Cb ranks and see if he really wants to play football.
I will be surprised if Randall is on the 53 man roster when The Packers line up against The Cowboys.
In other news.
How about that O-line consisting of 4 guards and a center?

I wasn't watching him very closely but I was a play early in the game that I thought wasn't too bad. I was hoping he was putting it all together.

Guess I was wrong.

Any journeyman swing tackles we could get for him?

One thing I noticed in another thread is how it is always Randall and Rollins.

Being drafted 1-2 that has been the natural thing to do.
I was hoping the "Randall and Rollins" holding down the corners would be a thing to last many years
Doesn't look like that will happen, but let's not throw Rollins under the bus because Randall is having "problems".
Not sure where or how mych Rollins played. But I dont think he had a terrible game and I know he didn't get benched.
We will all see in the next 10 days if Randall really wants to play in The NFL.

Currently of those options Rollins is losing and Burnett is playing there. At that's how it appears to me. That or the Packers simply think the CB slot is Burnett's best spot, which could be... because I don't think he's quite aggressive/physical enough at ILB but still very good at being close to the line and in coverage.

Everybody gets beat. Even the greats. But this guy Randall thinks way too highly of himself. He's his own worst enemy.
