The Miami Dolphins are being featured on the in-season edition of Hard Knocks, which has led to some strong reactions among players.
Earlier this week, Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa spoke out against Hard Knocks filming the Dolphins because he values his privacy, and Xavien Howard called it “B.S.”
We spoke with Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert, courtesy of Charmin, who are providing the Dolphins with toilet paper for their upcoming flight to Germany, to get his thoughts on the situation.
Mostert tells us that he stands with the players on the privacy issue of being featured on Hard Knocks but thinks being on the show will be a fun experience.
“I’m with the guys. You know, I’m with the players. I think that things that are spoken behind closed doors should always be behind closed doors, whether it be player to player, player to coach, or coach to player.
“It’s smart, it’s best that way, you know… but it also gives people outside the rooms a different perspective of what we deal with on a consistent basis. I think that that’s a good message as well. So, you know, I’m all for Hard Knocks being in the room, but I’m also all for, you know, having privacy as well.”
“I’m a private guy myself, and I like to keep my family private as well as much as I possibly can. I would much rather have it that way. It’s honestly a good time though. It’s going to be fun for sure.”
Before heading off to Germany for the NFL’s international game next week, Mostert partnered with Charmin to make sure the entire team had some soft toilet paper for their long flight.
“Me and Charmin, we partnered together… I’m a creature of habit, you know, That’s the biggest thing. And so, for me to be able to perform at my highest level, I have to do the necessary things on a consistent basis. And so one of the things that I like to do is bring things that help me in my journey and in my travel, and what better way than to have some good toilet paper right alongside me.”
“So the whole thing behind partnering with Charmin is, you know. having home away from home and wanting to beat at ease, I think that is the most important thing for me and as well as my teammates, you know, staying in routine and truly just taking it for what it is and handling business on Sunday against against the Chiefs.”
“I want to be in the best possible situation I possibly can, and that’s what Charmin does for me.”
