Martellus Bennett 'Never Felt at Home' During NFL Career
Martellus Bennett played for five different teams during his 10-year NFL career, so it's no wonder that he always felt like an outsider no matter where he went.
The former tight end discussed the problem on the Dave Dameshek Football Program podcast (via Austin Knoblauch of NFL.com):
"I never felt at home at any of the places that I played, honestly. I looked at myself as a consultant. So my job was to go into wherever this place was that needed a tight end and I would consult at the tight end position until they found another tight end better than me or my consultation was over, then I had to go consult somewhere else."
Bennett announced his retirement from the NFL in March.
