Thus far in the offseason, Arizona Cardinals quarterback Josh Rosen has handled everything well. While there were rumors of the Cardinals being interested in drafting quarterback Kyler Murray, he was professional in his comments and showed up before everyone else for offseason work.
Now that the Cardinals have actually drafted Murray and it appears now that Rosen will either be traded or relegated to a backup role, things have taken a turn.
He has apparently unfollowed the team accounts on both Instagram and Twitter, according to NFL Network assignment editor Clayton Holloway.
It is not overtly problematic and he might say he has been hacked, as he has been hacked on Instagram in the offseason already, but it is the sort of thing people pay attention to. It is enough for people to infer he is displeased with his situation.
Does it mean he already knows he will be traded, or is it just his way of separating himself from the organization that drafted and now is putting its faith in someone else? That we will not know for sure until he is moved or he speaks publicly.
