I am wondering if he asked if he could be out after a certain time and coach said no....and he got pissed off and went anyways.

I believe the report said he was angry about something unrelated to the team.

It was said it isn't team related or criminal related.

Did you see our defense today? I wouldn't want to play in that pile o' bile either after many years of being in a dominating 3-4 in Pitt. Maybe, probably not, but just maybe.

Tua time!
dont cut him. Everything I saw today is correctable except for that nickel lb situation.
Mike hull is a freaking target. The lack of range at lb today was attacked.
Come back Timmons

And then there was that embarrassing issue with linebacker Lawrence Timmons leaving the team Saturday.
Timmons, apparently dealing with a personal situation that made him so unhappy he headed to the airport on his own to go home, put the good of the team at risk on Sunday. At a time when the Dolphins are talking about being unified and a family and a brotherhood, Timmons simply became a solo act.
And so his Dolphins career is at risk now.
“I’m still kind of, I’ll be ready to talk about that, probably tomorrow,” Gase said. “I’m not saying anything right now. I need to figure some things out first before I talk about this.”
Part of figuring out if Timmons is going to salvage his career with the team or not involves Gase speaking with Timmons. That had not happened as of Sunday evening when this game ended.
So Timmons needs to have a compelling and logical explanation for Gase to make going AWOL an excusable offense. That’s a tough ask.
But if Timmons doesn’t convince Gase what he did somehow made sense, he might not be around this team for next week’s game or future games, or perhaps ever again.
That’s how serious this is.

Timmons was furious when the team refused to cut John Denney as he insisted after learning that John was shagging his mother.

Don't do it Adam gase
That nickel lb situation is a serious target if you do.
Give him a mulligan. The situation is dire

Elway loved Vance from his interview the year before, and reportedly almost hired him then. The Rooney rule probably got him the token interview, but the interview went so well it got him the job, albeit delayed by a year. If it weren't for the Rooney rule I doubt he's a head coach today.

My opinion unless Timmons did something very wrong you keep him and move on. His track record shows this is an anomaly, as long as it's proven it's something that won't linger.

You can't hide mike hull in the nickel. There's not a nickel athlete lb in that building period short of Kiko if you cut Timmons.
No damn way am I playing like that vs OCs who exploit weakness

So odd.
Timmons is going to have the unenviable task of showing his face in the locker room when (or if) he returns. Hope the dude is alright, must be in a bad way over something to just skip out on game day.
Hey one good thing coming from this is that Chase Allen didn't look lost out there. Made some good stops on Gordon so that's a plus. Can't believe we only allowed like 50yds rushing.
