Asante was too gassed to play corner on the last play

I was listening to 610WIP this evening and they were talking about an interesting story Asante Samuel and Quintin Mikell told. Apparently after Manning went deep like 2 or 3 times in a row, Asante went up to Mikell and said he was too gassed to play corner on the next play. Mikell stepped in and played Corner and Samuel played safety over the top. They think this actually confused Manning a little and probably contributed to the pick.

Actually got me thinking with Samuel's instinctive abilities, this would not be a bad thing to use future plays where the opponents need a long pass completion.
