Drew Brees is still in this mindset? unfreaking believable.

“I will never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States of America or our country.”

saints players need to educate drew brees - his statement is embarrassing at this point of time. it was a dumb thing to say then and it's especially dumb now not to get that peaceful kneeing was about *injustice* and *police brutality* and had nothing to do with the american flag

Clarifying: It is not the black community's "job" to educate a 41-year old who's clearly willfully ignorant and tone-deaf. My tweet intended to say that teammates should help @drewbrees, who has huge platform/voice, to better learn and use his stage to support, not add ignorance.

@drewbrees .@drewbrees doubling down on his ignorance. In a statement to @MikeTriplett he added: “I also stand with my grandfathers who risked their lives for this country and countless other military men and women.”

He's still making the peaceful kneeling about military/flag 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@drewbrees #Saints wide receivers have something to say.

@drewbrees Drew Brees's former teammate, Hall of Famer LaDainian Tomlinson, went on to expose exactly the thing Drew Brees tried to do today.

@drewbrees Current #Saints Safety @MalcolmJenkins is also speaking up against tone-deaf @drewbrees

"We're done asking Drew!"

"I considered you a friend, I looked up to you, you're someone I had a great deal of respect for, but sometimes you should shut the f*ck up."

@drewbrees @MalcolmJenkins Malcolm Jenkins now posted a 4 minute video on his Instagram.
