Julio Jones on worst Falcons moment, sets record straight about Shannon Sharpe call

If you’re a Falcons fan, the new podcast that features Julio Jones, Harry Douglas, and Roddy White should be a treat as the trio dives into our favorite and least favorite moments of their tenures.

In the podcast’s premier episode, Julio Jones sets the record straight about the infamous call with Shannon Sharpe live on air. If you’re unfamiliar, let me jog your memory.

On Fox’s Undisputed, Sharpe decided to get to the bottom of the situation with Julio Jones and the Falcons, calling the wide receiver while on the air. And Jones said, candidly, “I’m out of there.”

It seemed like Jones didn’t know he was live on air, and Sharpe didn’t clarify one way or another, with the Falcons obviously upset over the entire situation. Its fans were irate too.

How could someone as beloved as Julio Jones just say something so casual as if he was already out of Atlanta? Well, it turns out, he didn’t know he was live on air, and he said as much on the premiere of his new podcast, while also adding that the day of the trade was the worst moment of his Falcons tenure.
