Social media reacted sharply to Ryan Clark’s appearance on the half-time show of the NFL Divisional Round game between the Houston Texans and the New England Patriots on Sunday.
Clark purportedly accused the Texans’ backline of racism and allegedly claimed that is the reason why their quarterback, CJ Stroud, could not perform. Stroud had 124 passing yards, having completed only 10 of 20 attempts with one touchdown in Massachusetts on Sunday afternoon.
With angry Texans fans going lamenting Stroud’s poor show as the starting quarterback, Clark’s analysis during halftime seemed to make things worse.
