ESPN 980 Washington's Chris Russell reports Redskins ILB Rocky McIntosh was "essentially suspended" for Week 17.
A surprise inactive, McIntosh reportedly drew the ire of coach Mike Shanahan for being "late to some meetings/inattentive." Set to become a free agent, McIntosh had appeared in every game before Week 17, starting eight. He tallied 65 tackles and one sack, grading out as one of the worst inside linebackers in the league by Pro Football Focus. There's a good chance his six-year tenure in Washington has come to an end.

Redskins ILB Rocky McIntosh was inactive in Week 17 after "blowing off" curfew, a source tells CSN Washington's Ryan O'Halloran.
McIntosh's fate in Washington is essentially sealed and he likely knew it. They'll use Perry Riley as their starting inside linebacker of the future, allowing McIntosh to walk in free agency. Jan 2 - 11:25 AM


According to ESPN 980 Washington's Chris Russell, Redskins ILB Rocky McIntosh "stuffed his bed with pillows/blankets to make it look like he was in and not breaking curfew" during the team's trip to Philadelphia.
"It did not work," according to Russell. Perhaps things would have turned out differently had McIntosh had his parents call coach Mike Shanahan and ask permission to stay out later. McIntosh will be playing elsewhere in 2012. Jan 2 - 1:43 PM

I love it.
Any man willing to try something that inspired deserves a million bucks a year.
