Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus claims his Instagram account was hacked on Wednesday morning when an enthusiastic rant against the organization and head coach Rex Ryan was posted.
While we typically don’t believe players when they claim their social media accounts were compromised after they say boneheaded things, this particular tirade seemed over the top even for a player who may be unhappy with his current situation.
I think it's safe to say Marcell Dareus' Instagram was hacked. This was posted about 15 minutes ago. pic.twitter.com/CXm1Exvi4L

Dareus took to Twitter for the first time in nearly two years to say his Instagram account was hacked:
My instagram account was hacked. Trying to fix it now. You all know I would never say those things.

Sure, Dareus has dealt with substance abuse issues in the past. And yes, a recent report indicated he is butting heads with some members of the Bills organization. But no one can be angry enough to go off on their employer like that on a Wednesday morning, can they? We’ll give Dareus the benefit of the doubt.
