Miko Grimes’s scorched earth campaign out of Miami continues unabated.

The wife of recently-released cornerback Brent Grimes threatened to air the Dolphins’ dirty laundry on Twitter on Thursday. In fact, she’s already gotten started, taking particular aim at favorite target Ryan Tannehill among a host of others, including former Miami receiver Brian Hartline.

i dont talk about the dolphins until they talk about me. u want me to shut up? tell THEM to shut up first! otherwise, all bets are off!

— Miko Grimes (@iHeartMiko) March 24, 2016

hey @brianhartline how were u a #1 target for so long, then invisible in a contract year?? the fans wanna know, not me?i already know

— Miko Grimes (@iHeartMiko) March 24, 2016

@Heat_316 did your qb have to get a whole new receiving core bc the last group asked for him to be benched for matt moore??

— Miko Grimes (@iHeartMiko) March 24, 2016

@Heat_316 will the qb throw the practice squad shade in front of the whole team while the coaches ignore it? if not, tampa will love me!

— Miko Grimes (@iHeartMiko) March 24, 2016

maybe the dolphins should sign me since they keep blaming their perfectly good oline for their qb’s lack of skills. id be a sick guard!?

— Miko Grimes (@iHeartMiko) March 24, 2016

Miko also continued to push back against the notion that her outspoken nature played a role in her husband’s release by arguing that if that was the case, Miami wouldn’t have tried to get Brent Grimes to restructure his contract and stay.

how can u cost someone a job they no longer wanted?? #declined #nothanks

raise ur hand if u had cancer & could get rid of it, immediately, ud keep it for a discounted rate! any1? any hands up??didnt think so! FOH

— Miko Grimes (@iHeartMiko) March 24, 2016

Owner Stephen Ross basically confirmed that Miko’s behavior was a factor in her husband’s release, but Miko really isn’t having this line of thought from anyone. Of course, this is far from the first time she’s gone after Tannehill.
