David Garrard wants to play quarterback in the NFL, but has no desire to do so for the Dolphins in their current state. "There's been a lot of speculation about me that I don't appreciate," Garrard said. "I was going to lay low with the media but I feel I have to protect my name. I just want to make it clear that I'm a football player, I want to be with a team and be with an organization that will be as committed to me as I will be to them." Garrard admitted the Dolphins were one of the teams that initially contacted him after being abruptly released by the Jaguars on Sept. 6. "I talked to them in the very beginning -- they were one of the teams that were very interested," Garrard said. "But they basically said, 'We want to give our guy (Henne) a chance, see how he performs and if we don't like way it goes, we'll make a move.' Then it comes when (Henne) unfortunately gets hurt. My feeling is if you want me, prove it to me."
