Dolphins Lineman, an Englewood-native, Likely Done in Miami

Richie Incognito appeared unlikely to return to the Dolphins locker room following racist comments he allegedly made to a teammate.

The Dolphins lineman at the center of the NFL's latest scandal will never play another game for Miami, according to media reports.

Richie Incognito, who was born in Englewood and later moved to Arizona, is accused of hurling vitriolic hate-speech at teammate and second-year offensive tackle Jonathan Martin. Incognito's threatening language appears to be the reason Martin, 24, left the team late last month ahead of their game against Cincinnati.

Incognito, 30, was suspended Sunday night for "conduct detrimental to the team," and is not likely to don a Dolphins uniform again.
