My guess is Rosenhaus sometime between his apology to his team yesterday and late last night, got the Pats interested and when Brown realized he could go somewhere else like the Pats he pushed more Raiders buttons and asked for his release the way he did.
We will see if he rips apart the Pats. The stuff he's done and said and acted isn't just a malcontent that Belichek and Brady and Kraft can mute like they have others, it's a guy whose ego is 100x larger then anyone else's and he going to put himself above common sense and his teammates more often than not.
Or he could last less than a week on the Pats.
Raiders could've put him on a left the team list, and given Brown a 5 day letter to report. If he didn't show, Brown would've not been able to play for anyone this season.
