Stuff is getting crazy. Overreactions like this hurt progress.

Yeah, it's not the smartest thing to say, and it is insensitive...but the intent on his comments was not malicious, and I don't think it was racist.
On a day with bad visibility if it's harder to see the ball, and a guy is good at doing play fakes, a player as good as Lamar Jackson will make a defence pay for that split second extra reaction time.
Although it does make you think...why wouldn't more QB's wear long sleeves and gloves that blend with the football?
