Wilson: Roth discusses "falling out" with Dolphins

Cleveland Browns outside linebacker Matt Roth acknowledged that the reason he's no longer with the Miami Dolphins is because of a "falling out" with the Dolphins after suffering a groin injury that required surgery.

"Sometimes when you get hurt, people don't get happy,' Roth told the Cleveland Plain Dealer today. "We had a good relationship until the injury.'

Roth was claimed by the Browns off waivers one year after recording five sacks for the Dolphins.

He declined to comment on whether he asked to be cut by the Dolphins.

"It's one of those things I don't want to get into," he said.

Browns defensive coordinator Rob Ryan sounds excited to have Roth on his defense.

"He is really a tough kid," Ryan said. "He’s going to be good. We’re looking to play him right away, get him in there with the rest of the guys, get him to know his new teammates.

"He’s a smart, tough guy, with an emphasis on the tough part. That really is what he stands for. He’s an old wrestler and he really is a tough kid, good competitive kid.”
