Former NFL player calls for racially segregated game to replace Pro Bowl: 'Sick of average white guys'

Former NFL running back Rashard Mendenhall took to social media Monday to call for a racially segregated pro football game.

“I’m sick of average white guys commenting on football,” the Super Bowl champion said on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. “Y’all not even good at football.”

Mendenhall, who played for the Arizona Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Steelers, offered a replacement to the existing Pro Bowl.

“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?” he asked. “I’m better than ur goat.”

Former NFL defensive end J.J. Watt entertained the idea, noting that the "All-White" team would struggle to defend against Tyreek Hill, a Black wide receiver for the Miami Dolphins known for his speed.

“We’d get cooked at corner, not gonna lie,” Watt said. “Nobody on our squad is covering Tyreek [laughing emoji].”

Steelers podcast host Christopher Carter alleged the seemingly unprovoked post hints at potential mental struggles for Mendenhall.

The black league should have police instead of referees.

“ That’s right. Why are blacks culturally appropriating a white man’s sport?”

Because they already knew how to run fast with coconuts so it was a natural progression for the amount of money paid

I walked away from the National Felon League several years ago and haven’t missed it at all. I don’t understand why so many conservatives insist on watching it.

Hey racist Rashard! Most people in the USA could not care less about the NFL. So just take a flying leap off a tall mountain…LOSER.

And to call the plays.

The two TOP contenders for the MVP are both white and both 49ers.

BUT what advertisers would they have???

I don't think this would be a problem. TV commercials nowadays star blacks about 99 percent of the time.

As a Steeler fan, I hate the national TV announcers. They’re always dissing our Steelers, “there should be a flag for that, didn’t the officials see it?” Shut up already.
