Dear Drew Brees:
1.) That’s me, a US Marine. If anyone knows about respect and love for country, I’m your guy.
2.) Knowing why some NFL players knelt in the first place ie raising awareness for racial justice, I don’t find their action disrespectful to my service or the Flag. pic.twitter.com/V2UhR6cQpq

We don’t care if you don’t agree and whoever else how about that.

.@drewbrees is part of the problem. His take is disingenuous and wrong. The flag argument is an excuse to keep business as usual. Smh pic.twitter.com/23w9KGJdcs

prevnextDrew Brees was once my teammate. Had a long intellectual talk with him in the cold tub once. Drew..... you’re a smart man. This ain’t ignorance. This is picking a side and not caring enough to fight for justice because you’re comfortable within your own bubble. Silence is murder!

lol wrangler hasn't tweeted in five days.

And Drew Brees had the nerve to post a Black Box on his IG yesterday. 70% of the Saints roster is Black and this is his response. When people show you who they are believe them cause he just doubled down on the same views he expressed around Colin Kaepernick. https://t.co/CcBBPfZ5j8
