As Ed Reed has learned the hard way, at this time of year, numerous dreams of coaches across the league are dealt hurtful blows as teams cut ties and decide to go in new directions. Many agree that one of the most famous candidates up for a new job was the former Ravens safety.

In a talk given that was posted on Instagram, the head coach was seen giving a long list of complaints in response to the turn of events. Among them, he blamed corruption for the deal falling through and used a spicy word choice while doing so:

"Moth*f*kers, yeah, I curse. Y'all heard curse words before. They got parents in here. They know I won't leave. And like I told you, I want all these recruits. They got some corrupt people in this world, some evil people that don't care about kids like I do."

The former safety also declared that he was not the one who terminated the deal in the accompanying caption. Instead, he stated that the university was at fault:

"I am NOT withdrawing my name as the Head Coach at Bethune Cookman. The administration and the AD are forcing me out."
