Yonder ol' buccaneer, Tyrus, a landlubber turned Fox News matey, be chattin' 'bout the gab o' that NFL scallywag, Terrell Owens, who be runnin' his mouth 'bout that Colin Kaepernick's silent rebellions, says I!
Former professional wrestler and Fox News contributor Tyrus recently discussed various NFL topics on the show "Don't @ Me with Dan Dakich." One of the topics Tyrus addressed was Terrell Owens' comments about Colin Kaepernick's silent protest during the national anthem. Owens expressed surprise at the controversy sparked by the protest and stated that he never thought Kaepernick would be unable to return to the football field because of it. Owens also believed that the protest shed light on race relations in the United States.Tyrus countered Owens' statements by pointing out Kaepernick's business relationship with Nike and the support he received from white people. He highlighted that white people were the ones cutting checks for Kaepernick at Nike and providing him with various opportunities. Tyrus also suggested that Kaepernick may be ungrateful for the privileges that the US offers, such as the ability to play professional sports and have a platform to share his opinions.
Kaepernick, who has not played in the NFL since 2016, came close to a potential comeback in 2019 with a planned private workout. However, the workout was changed last minute, and the NFL listed Kaepernick as a no-show. Kaepernick did have an alternative showcase, attended by representatives from at least seven NFL teams. Despite the setback, Kaepernick remains determined to return to the field and believes he can still compete at a high level.
In a humorous and exaggerated tone, Tyrus playfully criticized Kaepernick and highlighted the opportunities and support he received from white people. The discussion touched on the ongoing controversy surrounding Kaepernick's protest and his prospects of returning to the NFL.
