After he sat out Sunday's win over the Bears, Cardinals wide receiver Anquan Boldin said the Cardinals' coaches weren't "man enough" to tell him to his face why he had been put on the inactive list.
Today Boldin talked to the media for the first time since then, and he said he's looking ahead and not dwelling on the Bears game.
"I'm done with the situation," Boldin said. "I said what I had to say and I've moved on."
On Sunday, Boldin was upset because he thought his injured ankle felt good enough for him to play, and he said he found out he was inactive by seeing that his locker had been cleared out. Today Boldin said he hasn't talked to coach Ken Whisenhunt about the matter, but that it's behind him.
The Cardinals' offense was just fine without Boldin: Kurt Warner completed 22 of 32 passes for 261 yards and five touchdowns as the Cardinals blew out the Bears.
Boldin "done with" the "man enough" story

that's cause the cards are "team enough" to win without him.
I love Boldin but it's a fact that the Cardinals dont need him to make the offense click. They played well on sunday without him and last year they went 5-1 without him on the field. I think he makes the team better but with his attitude as of late I would say trade him in the offseason for picks since this draft will probably be full college talent trying to avoid a rookie cap.
"His "lcocker" had been cleared out" ? Freaky.....
Trade him to the Bears or something. He does not want to be a Cardinal...does not take a rocket scientist to figure this out
I'm more than enough man for Beth Stern.
Someone forgot to tell him his stuff was moved to the Bears locker room.
The Cardinals were smart not give him a big contract. Boldin is a great player but he is unreliable and is always injured. Further, nobody in the league will forget his antics on the sideline in last year's NFC title game.
