He's a 5th round backup. Dude has gotta be toast. Amazing how he started over Fields tbh.

"I posted it in regards with the Black Lives Matter movement. Part of that movement allocates certain responsibilities to specifically white people; including to hold people who make racist comments accountable. Often times no one speaks out against those in positions such that he is. But because his career is dependent on black people – not only has he been completely silent during the movement, but he has also contributed to the pain and hurt of black people's lives by making such a statement."

Football fan tribalism.

I posted over on Dawgnation too and i was attacked immediately as a troll, where's the evidence, etc. and then was told to fuck off "dork", while the rest of the thread shifted from "it's fake" to victim blaming.

Hmm, Someone who knows both Fromm and the other participant acted as a go-between, wanting her to take down the tweet on this, and that the Bills are talking about dropping him.

Unlike Kaepernick he won't get real heat. Kaep was banned basically this guy won't be.
