Former Patriots defensive end/outside linebacker Cassius Marsh was in the news a lot of last week following sounding off on the Patriots' culture and saying he didn't enjoy himself in New England. He also added Bill Belichick didn't use him properly and he called for a meeting asking for his release, which ended up by happening on Nov. 21.

Devin McCourty spoke on his comments following Thursday's OTA session and said they didn't surprise him because he had a frustrating time with the team.

And now Monday, it was learned Marsh had a locker room tirade during halftime of the Mexico City game against the Raiders on Nov. 19. Jeff Howe of The Athletic added he threw a Gatorade jug because he felt like he wasn't playing enough.

Marsh was cut two days later before joining the 49ers to finish off the season and since has signed a new contract.

Not only have things got worse and worse when it comes to Marsh's comments and how he looks, but also the decision for the Patriots to send a fifth and seventh-round pick to Seattle for him before last season. Clearly, Marsh was never a fit for the culture in New England and that deal was clearly a swing and a miss for the Patriots.
