EP 22 // CHRIS LONG ON HIS SUPPORT OF ANTHEM PROTESTS, DISAPPOINTING DREW BREES & WHY SIMPLY NOT BEING RACIST ISN'T ENOUGH Jun 16, 2020

Show notes

In 2016, when Colin Kaepernick began kneeling during the national anthem to protest police violence against black and brown people, most white NFL players remained silent or, worse, criticized the action, reframing it as disrespect for the flag and U.S. troops. Two-time Super Bowl-winning defensive end Chris Long, who was playing for the New England Patriots at the time, actually listened to Kap to gain a better understanding and became one of the league’s first white players to publicly support the protests. In addition to speaking out, in 2017, he famously threw his arm around Philadelphia Eagles teammate and activist Malcolm Jenkins during his raised-fist protest to show solidarity. On this episode of “Getcha Popcorn Ready,” Chris joins T.O. and Hatch to talk about his teammates’ earlier protest in the wake of Mike Brown’s killing and why it didn’t move the needle like Kap kneeling, why he decided to speak up, the importance of white NFL stars like J.J. Watt throwing their influence behind the movement and what advice he gives them, why Drew Brees’ recent comments about disrespecting the flag were so disappointing, what protests will look like moving forward, and why it’s not enough to simply not be racist. Also, T.O. opens up about a disturbing racist encounter he had early on in his career. This is an important episode you do not want to miss. Follow us on social media!

On this episode of “Getcha Popcorn Ready,” Cam joins T.O. and Hatch to talk about the effects of getting a big contract, prioritizing long-term security and legacy in New Orleans, having six-time Pro Bowler Steve Jordan for a father, the lessons his dad taught him about the pro experience and financial responsibility, the controversial no-call in the 2018 NFC Championship Game that denied the Saints a trip to the Super Bowl, Drew Brees and the window for the Saints to win another Super Bowl, the addition of former division foe Jameis Winston to the Saints, the impact of Tom Brady, Rob Gronkowski, Todd Gurley, and others joining the NFC South, and much more!
