The BIZARRE End to Lynn Dickey's CAREER | 1985 Packers

We've seen plenty of guys ask for playing time, but what about a player demanding that his coach not play him anymore? Well, that's exactly what happened with Green Bay Packers quarterback Lynn Dickey. Following a 1985 NFL game between the Green Bay Packers and New York Jets, Dickey asked head coach Forrest Gregg to not play him anymore, even though Gregg had every intention of keeping him on as the starting quarterback. What followed was a bizarre saga that more than 35 years later, still doesn't make a whole lot of sense. OFFICIAL JAGUARGATOR9 MERCHANDISE: https://jg9shop.com/ New listings every week!
