I'm not sure if this is a bug or just bad code, but I've seen this several times from TEs. My TE has a clear path up the sideline, but instead, he decides to cut to the middle of the field: https://private75.myfootballnow.com/gamecenter/view/568#108431

Since it's the end of the 2nd quarter, he SHOULD BE RUNNING TO THE SIDELINE anyway.

It's absurd, and I've seen this many, many times with TEs and WRs. For the record, that TE has 94 INT, but apparently his brain just falls out from time to time.
