Pederson alluded to this in his post game interview last night.  He quoted a saying that "bad teams are leaderless, mediocre teams are coach-led and elite teams are player-led" or something to that effect and said there were examples of vet guys on the team trying to lead but that it isn't where it needs to be yet.  Trevor has to be one of those guys given the position and salary.

I can promise you that Trevor putting his name on the stadium while accomplishing nothing in his career up to this point absolutely pissed off teammates. You can’t put yourself above the team, it was a total look at ME move. You make 55 million everyone gets it. Nobody would respect him yelling at them. Nobody.
