Miko Grimes claims Dolphins receivers asked for Ryan Tannehill to be benched
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!

@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??

@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!

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 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

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.
