Ndamukong Suh appears to have taken exception to a report detailing the controversial manner in which he addressed teammates following last week's loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

The Miami Dolphins defensive tackle posted an image to Instagram on Sunday, seemingly aimed at NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, who made the report.

Rapoport's report aired Sunday on "GameDay Morning," and described Suh making it clear to teammates he was the top defensive player.

Rapoport said:

"I'm told (Suh) told (teammates): 'I run this defense, I'm going to be here for the next five years, there is no guarantee any of you will be as well. Only a handful of guys are good enough to play with me right now.'

"(Suh) also said the schemes were not good enough, the techniques were not enough, and everyone needed to be better, he said 'follow me.'"

Rapoport indicated Dolphins players had mixed reactions to the situation. Some saw it as an act of leadership, while others hadn't heard such a speech before.
