When reports first surfaced Max Kellerman was going to be leaving First Take, many figured he was being pushed out by Stephen A. Smith. There were plenty of rumors that Kellerman was leaving due to his relationship with Stephen A. Smith. The overall gist was Smith doesn’t like Kellerman, their relationship has soured, and Stephen A. wanted him out.

Smith was able to address those pesky rumors on the “Morning Hustle” podcast.

SAS says most of the reports coming out are false.

Twitter reacted to the news:

Sounds like Stephen A. couldn’t care less if Max stays or goes.

We know Stephen A. cares more about himself than who he’s across from fake arguing.
