The always outspoken Lions center Dominic Raiola has weighed in on the Titus Young situation stemming from Young purposely sabotaging the offense a couple weeks ago against Green Bay.
Raiola’s comment’s come via Chris McCosky’s Twitter page…
Raiola on Titus Young: "We've moved on from him. He wants to be an asshole, let him be an asshole. It's not my problem."

More Raiola on Young: "What we can control is the guys who want to be here. And when you act like that, you don't want to be here."

Raiola: "We've got good guys on offense. Don't be an asshole and don't be a jerk."

Raiola burying Young may be due to the wide receiver’s seemingly negative attitude towards the media Friday…
#Lions Titus Young finally talks but does not apologize or say much of anything.

#Lions WR Titus Young talked with the media. Two and three word answers. Bad #NFL attitude

Titus Young spoke with the media today. Kind of. Didn't really want to answer anything or be bothered. No surprise.

Apparently the #Lions' Titus Young still has some growing up to do. http://t.co/cOfdckw4 #LacesOut

Love him or hate him you certainly can’t blame a guy like Dominic Raiola for making the comments he did. Raiola is a guy who has spent his entire 12 year career with the Lions, loves the team and wants to win after being subjected to the darkest times in the franchises history.
Meanwhile Young isn’t sure if he will play this Sunday against Indianapolis only saying that “it’s in God’s hands”.
None the less it seems like Titus’ days as a Lion are numbered.
