Dallas Cowboys offensive lineman Chaz Green has been on the wrong side of many jokes for about a week now. After getting destroyed last weekend, when attempting to play some tackle, it hasn't exactly been a week of sunshine and rainbows for him.
He realizes this. In turn, he is dealing with people's anger in a rather smart way.
“I haven’t been on social media or anything like that cause I know they’re killing me right now,” Green said, via Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “But I’m a guy who kind of stays within myself, whether it’s good or bad, you’re not going to see much change out of me. I’ve just been focusing on getting better, ignoring all the noise and trying to just master my craft.”
While we have all giggled at him from a distance, teammates understand that bad — even if flatly awful — games happen.
“Anybody who has played in this league for any extended amount of time [has struggled],” veteran tight end Jason Witten said. “Believe it or not, Troy [Aikman] probably threw an interception. Michael [Irvin] may have dropped a pass. Those things happen. They’re the greatest players to ever play in this organization.
“Those things happen for all of us and your ability to process it and learn from it, not feel sorry for yourself, but get your ass back up and go again. We don’t lose confidence in those guys, just continue to support them and help them.”
Here is to hoping Chaz Green can leave this weekend without becoming a meme.
