Domonique Foxworth Responds to Backlash Following his ‘Racist’ Josh Allen Comments

Former NFL player Domonique Foxworth is learning what it’s like to be in hot seat. The ESPN talking head came under fire for comments he made about Josh Allen, specifically, Josh Allen’s fans. He basically called out all of the Buffalo Bills QB’s fans as racists.

“I am fully aware that I have biases. And my biases are not based on Josh Allen. It’s based on the people that are defending Josh Allen. I would be 100 percent lying if I said that when Josh does something dumb, a little part of me doesn’t get happy. And it’s not because I don’t want Josh to succeed,” Foxworth said.

“It’s because the people who are telling me that Josh is the second coming and Josh is better than everybody are people with American flags and dogs and skulls and crossbones. … If you go just take a dip into their tweet history, it’s some really concerning retweets and likes. … It’s not about Josh,” he concluded.

Now he’s claiming his comments were taken out of context.

Whether or not it was taken out of context, it was still an unfunny hot take. Sometimes people reach too far when trying to make a point. Foxworth needs to check himself when calling out an entire fanbase as racists.
