Darrelle Revis probably feels pretty invincible these days.

Only a few months removed from a Super Bowl victory with one team - the New England Patriots - Revis signed a fat new free agent contract with another team - the New York Jets - worth up to $70 million over five years with $39 million guaranteed.

Still, Revis is a human being - a professional football-playing human being. A professional football-playing human being with a big ego matched, perhaps, only by the size of his massive contract.

When fans of the Pats, likely sour because of his decision to leave the franchise in free agency for greener, more wallet-padding pastures, began to torment him via Instagram and taunt him with the notion that he won said Super Bowl only because of the Hall of Fame coach and quarterback, Bill Belichick and Tom Brady, already on said team prior to his arrival, Revis reacted as any overpaid athlete with an inflated sense of self would - he took great, penis-size ridiculing offense.

Wow, Darrelle. Just wow.

Revis has long seemed like one of the classier players in the league and one ill-fated Instagram rant does not a person make, just like one bad touchdown allowed does not a cornerback career define.

Still, Revis' decision to engage with fans in such a manner, and then claim that his account was hacked, seems childish and ridiculous.

Of course, it is possible that his account was hacked, just as it was possible that Donald Trump's Twitter account was hacked as well.

The more likely explanation seems to be that in a moment of unintended emotional clarity, Revis unloaded on a fan who said things that have increasingly been bandied about in the wake of the All-Pro cornerback's decision to join the rival Jets in free agency.

Revis is human. We all make mistakes. These things happen.

That being said, this seems like just another case of the poor and inadvisable marriage between public figures in sensitive positions and social media.
