Ex-NFL player Jack Brewer slams league
for fueling division with 'political advocacy'

Brewer reacts to NFL planning to play Black anthem for 2nd straight season

By Stephanie Giang-Paunon | Fox News

The National Football League is reportedly adding more politics to the playbook this upcoming season, ramping up the social justice messages and bringing back the Black national anthem before kickoff.

"They are not just an NFL league or a sports league anymore. They have gone to straight political advocacy," former NFL player Jack Brewer told "Fox & Friends," Friday.

Brewer claimed that the NFL put millions of dollars into advertising for Black Lives Matter and other social movements, but mentioned the league’s actions aren’t necessarily helping the Black community at all.

"41% of kids in Baltimore high schools have less than a 1.0 GPA. That's an NFL city. If you want to do something, let's go in and try to help Baltimore fix their school system," Brewer told co-host, Lawrence Jones. "If you really care about African-Americans, then you're not going to have your voice only talk about movements like BLM that want to destroy the family unit because that is the core issue of our problems."
