With the Raiders moving on from defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, many questions linger. Especially with the report that a teammate made a report to the team\u2019s human resources department after Wilkins allegedly kissed him on the forehead.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, coach Pete Carroll declined to comment on that report. Defensive tackle Adam Butler was asked a more general question about the controversy involving Wilkins.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe pretty much just kind of moved on from the situation,\u201d Wilkins said. \u201cYou know, I really don\u2019t want to comment further on it. But I will say that, you know, whatever you\u2019re going through as a person, you know, athlete not athlete, whoever. Whatever your struggle is. if you got something going on in life, just, you know, talk to somebody. Get some therapy, you know, whatever your deal is, is your deal. Somebody out there in this world full of billions of people is willing to listen. They\u2019re willing to listen, hear you out, and help you work through whatever you need to work through. But don\u2019t make any hasty decisions. Get help.\u201d<\/p>\n
That\u2019s widely being interpreted as a message by Butler to Wilkins. It also could be viewed as a message to the player who went to H.R., since H.R. is there to talk to people who have issues at work.<\/p>\n
Is it unusual for an NFL player to go to H.R.? Yes. But they are there to talk to employees who need to talk. So whether you\u2019re someone who is allegedly doing things at work that create issues or whether you\u2019re someone having things done to you at work, there are people in the workplace who can help. <\/p>\n
It\u2019s why they are there. Seek them out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"With the Raiders moving on from defensive tackle Christian Wilkins, many questions linger.
