Josh Rosen was careful not to say anything inflammatory about the Arizona Cardinals on Monday as he was introduced as a member of the Miami Dolphins.
Rosen defended himself against charges that he is a bad teammate, suggesting that he wasn’t sure where talk of that came from.
Josh Rosen: "I think I'm a really good teammate. It's not up to me to judge. I had a little bit of bad perception at first but I've just tried to be me and let it straighten out."

JOsh Rosen says he doesn't know where questions of personality came from. Admits he said some things off the cuff about "all different kind of things," and people took it different ways.

Rosen also refused to be critical of the Cardinals, and didn’t take the bait when asked how it felt to be dealt for a second-round pick.

At least publicly, Rosen has handled his departure from the Cardinals very well. Whatever the perceptions of him are around the league, he has looked like a good teammate who’s taking it all in stride, at least from the outside. Refusing to be drawn into criticism of his former team is indicative of that.
