I believe the brouhaha was when Gettleman chased him all around the Giants' facility, over Benjamin making too many trips through the cafeteria line.  That's when I began referring to him as 'Lunch Lady Gettleman'.

 

It was a fake story by Wesley Steinberg who specializes parody NFL stories after Benjamin was cut. Everybody retweeted anyways without bothering to check so it is pretty much an established "fact" now. 

 

Here is the AI summary of why Benjamin was actually cut:

 

Date: The release occurred on Wednesday, July 28, 2021. 

 

Reason: The core of the issue was a disagreement over weight. 

 

Incident: Benjamin had a visible discussion with Judge and Gettleman before walking off the field during the first training camp practice. 

 

Weight Discrepancy: Benjamin was informed he needed to cut down to 251 pounds but reportedly arrived at camp weighing 268 pounds, despite passing the conditioning test.

Great to have Mitch in the house... loved him as a player.... wonder if they try to talk him into the PS LOL 

[BuffaloBillyG]

Can't WAIT til they open the closet they store AJ Klein in and let him be the legend of the game. Maybe saving him for playoffs.

I'm still waiting for the Kelvin Benjamin week. He was certainly legendary.

I don't remember that story. Maybe. But Benjamin was a big guy who just got lazy and stopped working. Running or jumping for a pass was just too much work I guess. 

Never forget:

Already disliked the guy as he appeared to be laziest player I ever watched. That moment he became my least favorite bill all time

Thanks, I was about to chime in with the same, I love a good joke but the guy sadly took his own life most likely.

Hmmm "legend". I liked him enough but it's so soon. 

The legend of the game is past Bills players not actual football legends 

 

It's just the name

I'll allow it, bit of a stretch but remember he's sitting in the Takeo box for the game which isn't so legendary either

 

You know it's funny, the public at the time gave him a lot of grief for complaining about it.  Here we are years later though and still use it as a "Terry is cheap" or "put that guy in Takeo's box" reference when the time is right 😄.

His agent explained it was just a bad connection. He’d like one more shot at a commission.

Love the big guy.  Check out his Monday Mornings with Mitch podcast if you get a chance.  Some interesting conversations in there.

Mitch has such a soft spoken demeanor.  I wonder if he can pull off the "Where else would you rather be.....?" without straining something.

I think I could dig him up somewhere.

C’mon, Mitch gets our appreciation for being Josh’s mentor early in his career.  That alone earns him the right to “lead the charge.”

When he was playing, I always thought of him as the team's dad.  He seemed mature and sensible and always kept his head about him.  When Hamlin died on the field, I remember Morse hugging and comforting one of the other players who was sobbing on his chest.
