Former Wisconsin Badger J-J Watt tells another twitter user not to speak for him about taking a knee during the national anthem.
When a right-leaning website creator shared the news late last week that Houston Texans coach Bill O’Brien would take a knee with his players, another twitter user posted, “Pretty sure you won’t see @JJWatt taking a knee.”
Watt responded in a tweet saing: “A) don’t speak for me B) if you still think it’s about disrespecting the flag or our military, you clearly haven’t been listening.”
Watt and several other Texans attended last week’s funeral for George Floyd in Houston.
The three-time N-F-L Defensive Player of the Year has said, “Racism is a problem and silence won’t solve it.”
