Randy Moss wanted to play for Falcons or Ravens

Moss suggested in an interview with a local radio station, were thwarted by the fact that Atlanta owner Arthur Blank and team president Rich McKay wanted nothing to do with the perennial Pro Bowl wide receiver.”I wanted to play with Atlanta just for the fact of Michael Vick’s elusiveness,” Moss said. “And I wanted to play with a guy such as [Ravens star middle linebacker] Ray Lewis, because he’s on defense and I’m on offense. So I did have dreams and high hopes of being traded to the Atlanta Falcons, but the president and owner . . . told me specifically that [they] did not want me in Atlanta, there’s nothing that I can do to get [to] Atlanta, and then wished me the best of luck. [Blank] did not think that Randy Moss would be a good fit in Atlanta.”
Atlanta was probably looking for someone who would be less of a distraction and had less of an ego…like Zsa Zsa Gabor.
