Some Jacksonville Jaguars players didn't think it was right to have Gus Bradley fly back home on the team's charter Sunday after he was fired.

"Yeah, that sucked," Sen'Derrick Marks said. "If I had an opinion on if I thought that was the right move, I don't think that was the right way to do it. He had to ride the plane home back that way, but that ain't my call. They did it. They made the move.

"Gus was very cordial about it. Spoke with everybody. Came through the plane shaking hands and just talking with people. Gus has always been a great person in that aspect, but I don't think we as players were in the mood or were ready to actually see that at that moment."

Bradley spoke with many players, assistant coaches and team personnel on the two-hour flight from Houston to Jacksonville.

"It's a tough situation, because you love the guy and you know this is it; we're going home for the last time with him, and then we're not going to get a chance to have him in the building again," Paul Posluszny said.

Making the situation even more awkward was that a lot of players found out about the firing via social media.
