Former Super Bowl champion Rashard Mendenhall went viral after he proposed an “All-Black vs. All-White bowl” instead of the annual Pro Bowl, and said he’s “sick” of “white guys commenting on football.”
In the post on Monday on X, the former Pittsburgh Steelers running back blasted “white” NFL analysts without describing further exactly who the ire was directed at. The post has since been viewed over 15 million times.
“I’m sick of average white guys commenting on football,” Mendenhall wrote to his thousands of followers. “Y’all not even good at football.”
I’m sick of average white guys commenting on football. Y’all not even good at football. Can we please replace the Pro Bowl with an All-Black vs. All-White bowl so these cats can stop trying to teach me who’s good at football. I’m better than ur goat.
