    DAVIE, Fla. Malik Beasley Nuggets Jersey . -- Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross says he spoke with the NFL and the attorney who investigated the teams bullying scandal to get a sense of what will be included in their forthcoming report on the case. "I have an idea what will be in it," Ross said Tuesday. "I havent seen the report. I dont know exactly what his conclusion is. When it comes out, well do what has to be done. In my mind, I know what direction were going." Following an 8-8 season tainted by the scandal, Ross decided to keep coach Joe Philbin and part with general manager Jeff Ireland. Dennis Hickey was introduced as Irelands replacement at a news conference Tuesday, where Ross talked briefly about the case that rocked the franchise at midseason. New York attorney Ted Wells began a league investigation in November, and his report will be released after the Super Bowl. Tackle Jonathan Martin left the Dolphins in October and alleged he was harassed daily by teammates, including guard Richie Incognito, who was suspended for the final eight games. Incognito becomes a free agent this winter. When asked if he or Martin will play for the Dolphins again, Ross equivocated. "I dont believe so -- well, I cant say that," Ross said, adding with a chuckle, "Therefore I retract that." Wells report is expected to address the roles of Philbin, his staff and Miami management in the case. One issue is whether anyone on the coaching staff ordered Incognito to toughen up Martin. The case inspired a national debate about workplace bullying. Gary Harris Nuggets Jersey .

For that, the Bears coach is grateful. There probably wont be much reminiscing when Chicago takes on New Orleans at Soldier Field this week, but Trestman did take some time to reflect on Thursday. "No. 1, it was more about a friendship between Sean and myself," he said. Trestman had just been fired after a two-year run as offensive co-ordinator at North Carolina State and was on a sort of sabbatical when he was hired as a consultant to Payton, the Saints coach, for the 2007 season. They werent close friends at the time, but they knew each other from symposiums, back when Payton was an assistant in the league. They had attended symposiums and talked football over lunch a few times. For Trestman, the consulting job was "an opportunity to have some dignity in my career." Five years as the head coach of the Montreal Alouettes and two CFL championships later, Trestman is leading an NFL team for the first time. And hes off to a good start with the Bears at 3-1. Chicago is trying to pick itself up after losing to Detroit and knock the Saints (4-0) from the ranks of the unbeaten. The Bears are tied with the Lions for the NFC North lead. Their offence appears to be a better fit for the personnel, even if things have been a bit shaky at times, and it looks as if Trestman has connected with quarterback Jay Cutler. Thats something previous offensive co-ordinators Ron Turner, Mike Martz and Mike Tice could not do. And its a big reason why he is getting this opportunity, even though he seemed to vanish from the NFL radar. Trestman spent several decades coaching at the college and NFL levels under men such as Bud Grant, Howard Schnellenberger and Bill Walsh. He developed a reputation as a quarterback guru for his work with Bernie Kosar, Rich Gannon and Steve Young, but by the time he took the job with New Orleans, he was in a sort of limbo. "I had just been let go at N.C. State, I wasnt doing anything, I was sitting the year out, I had two years left on a contract," Trestman said. "He invited me down and really showed professional respect. ... It was a great learning time for me and it wwas also a good time to watch Sean be a head coach and see how he worked on a daily basis and see how he handled the success and the adversity. Jamal Murray Jersey. ." Payton called Trestman "a proven winner." But he was also a big question mark. There was a knock that Trestman didnt relate well, didnt get along with other assistants, and that explains why hes a first-time head coach in the NFL at age 57. He seems to be relating just fine now. Defensive co-ordinator Mel Tucker was quickly sold. The two had never worked together. But when he interviewed with Trestman in January, Tucker realized how alike they were. "We have very similar trains of thought about the game, how to treat people, what coaching is all about, how to develop football teams and players, what is coaching and things like that," Tucker said. A law school graduate with dark-rimmed glasses, Trestman looks and sounds more like an attorney or corporate CEO than most guys carrying a whistle and a clipboard. His answers are thoughtful and detailed. And theres a quirkiness to him. Trestman probably was the first coach to address the physics subject of "string theory and different dimensions" with Cutler. "Im kind of reading a book right now," the quarterback said. "I dont even know what half the words are in the book, though. We just kind of kick it around." Cutler wasnt sure of the books title. And he couldnt really explain the theory, which has to do with the idea that extra dimensions exist. Its just one example of Trestman connecting with a player, one of his most important players. Backup quarterback Josh McCown mentions the lunch room. Theres Trestman pushing in his chair and cleaning up his area and encouraging the players to do the same. He just wants players to be aware. "He just makes a point to say thats a way that you can serve the people around you," McCown said. "Its just a good example of the little things that you can do that maybe helps out somebody thats working back there in the kitchen, that doesnt have time to wipe up after you. The cool thing is theres never anything thats mandated. Its hey guys, think about doing it this way; think about doing it that way." ' ' '
