Priest Holmes was an exceptional ball-carrier, but his priorities were/are/always will be in the following order ...
1. Priest Holmes
2. Priest Holmes
3. Priest Holmes
When the camera was on, Priest always liked talking warm-fuzzies (it helped build up his image and bottom-line potential, after all), but he always managed to come up short on delivering said warm-fuzzies. Off the field, he was as ruthless as you'll ever see when it comes to being a selfish money-grubbing mercenary. Team Priest foundation out front should have told you.
While I don't fault him (or any other professional athlete) for that mentality, as long as they're producing on the field, the double-speak gets a bit tiresome.
Thanks for your service, Priest. Enjoy retirement.

Water under the bridge, but how badly do you suppose KC regrets trading Michael Bennett right about now?

for a guy who rarely saw the rock at Texas, he had a pretty decent career.
