There are many professional athletes and coaches whose play and decision-making on the field buys them some freedom to say whatever they want about other players and coaches. Jadeveon Clowney is not one of those guys.
Let’s be honest: Clowney’s football career can be summed up with one play, and odds are you saw it once or four thousand times on SportsCenter:
Jesus. How wrecked were the tighty whities on that announcer? Settle the fuck down, buddy.
But since wrecking both that announcer’s drawers and that running back’s face, Clowney has spent more time cleaning the sand out of his vagina than actually playing football. At South Carolina, not only did Clowney decide to skip his senior season to go pro, but he also decided to skip several games his junior season because of minor injuries that anybody with heart and dedication to the game would have played through.
A year later, the Houston Texans made him the #1 overall pick in the NFL Draft. He would go on to play just four games, recording seven tackles and zero sacks in the process.
So, what Clowney feels he has accomplished that allows him the right to take shots at college football coaching legend Nick Saban in the new book Saban: The Making of a Coach is anybody’s guess, but here’s what he had to say about him:
I don’t see no big deal like everybody else. They’d say, ‘He’s the king of all of football.’ The guy ain’t nothing but 5-5. He’s a short guy. Everybody’s going crazy on Nick Saban.
This isn’t the first time an NFL bust has said something stupid, but it still makes us wonder every time what athletes could be if they would just shut their damn yappers and played the game. In Clowney’s case, we may never know…
