The Colts fired OL coach Dave DeGuglielmo and frankly if this story is true about him, he shouldn’t get another job in the NFL (but he will) regardless of how well the Colts OL played.
Football is a sport, sometimes real life things happen and coaches need to be understanding about that, not assholes.
The Indianapolis Colts opened up the month of December by waiving offensive lineman Denzelle Good, who was still trying to work through the aftermath of his brother’s death earlier in the season.
Though the Colts front office and coaching staff did everything they could to help Good in his time of need, the former seventh-round pick told Vic Tafur of The Athletic that there were issues with offensive line coach Dave DeGuglielmo.
“I came back after my brother was murdered and I was dealing with a lot of personal issues,” Good told The Athletic. “That didn’t sit well with (DeGuglielmo). He wanted players that fight through things and play.”
“He told me that as long as I was there, I would never play for him again,” Good said. “I would never play another down because he felt disrespected. I wasn’t going to play even though I felt I was as good as anyone on the field playing.”
“Being called a failure by somebody when everybody else in the organization felt differently, that gave me some fire when I came here,” Good said. “I always felt I could be a starter. Things just went sour in Indianapolis.”
DeGuglielmo is a pathetic person if what Good is saying is true and the Colts aren’t that much better for allowing it to happen.
