Seattle Seahawks star Michael Bennett has revealed that he still believes that recently-signed tight end Jimmy Graham is overrated and still has a lot to prove.
In 2014, the Seahawks defeated the New Orleans Saints in a divisional-round playoff game, after which Bennett initially stated that he thought his then rival was overrated and was soft because he didn't block.
While he expects him to change his playing style and adjust to the Seahawks' way of playing, Bennett insists that he will be less harsh on his teammate even though his opinion hasn't changed.
"I still feel the same way, just because he's on my team I don't stop feeling that way," he said, ESPN reports.
"Obviously I'm going to be a better teammate to him. I can't do the things I was doing to him when we were playing him."
Bennett also moved to dismiss speculation that he had asked the Seahawks to be traded, after reports linked him with a move to the Dallas Cowboys this off-season.
