Former Chicago Bears head coach Dave Wannstedt criticized Roquan Smith’s holdout on Friday, calling it “pretty selfish from an agent perspective.”

One of Wannstedt’s disgruntled former players came to the defense of the rookie linebacker.

Randy McMichael was a tight end for the Miami Dolphins in 2004, when Wannstedt resigned from the team after a 1-8 start to the year.

Before that season had even finished, the coach accepted the head job at the University of Pittsburgh.

It’s easy for Wannstedt to sit back now and call players selfish, but when he hands out criticism, he opens himself up to take some hits too.
