Many people have spoken out against president Donald Trump over his decision to cancel the Philadelphia Eagles’ trip to the White House, and one of the most famous quarterbacks in NFL history is among them.
Terry Bradshaw spoke with TMZ over the weekend and said he fully supports the way the Eagles have handled the situation.
“I agree with the Eagles totally, 100 percent,” Bradshaw said. “Trump just needs to go somewhere and enjoy the money he’s got.”
Bradshaw, who is part of the FOX NFL broadcast team, became even more animated when discussing the way FOX News misrepresented Eagles players by showing them kneeling during prayer in a segment about anthem protests.
“You know what’s so bad about that whole event, how they were portrayed as protesting and kneeling during the national anthem when they were praying,” Bradshaw added. “That is just wrong. First amendment rights, I totally believe in it.”
Bradshaw is not alone, of course. The mayor of Philadelphia already teed off on Trump last week, and plenty of others believe the president acted immaturely only to avoid embarrassing himself because so few Eagles players were going to attend the White House ceremony.
