Earlier today, Arizona Cardinals safety Tony Jefferson and former NFL player Brennan Clay caused controversy with their Instagram comments about dark skinned women. Jefferson asked Clay about a "dark ass" woman in the photo, to which Brennan replied, "haha the dark bish can go."
Many people were speaking out against the athletes for their comments, including K. Michelle, who addressed both of the athletes and stated that they have "short d**k syndrome." Jefferson later apologized for his remarks, telling The Shade Room, "This is so crazy! First off, I didn't post that picture... I only commented on it," he said. "I said, 'Ay pony you want that dark a** one in the middle too' only because 'Pony,' who is one of my boys, said he wanted a Black woman. It was obviously a joke. My mom and sister who I love are Black. My ex-girlfriend is darker than me so I know she is cracking up right now. But honestly I would never disrespect my people... If I offended anybody I sincerely apologize but this is crazy. whoever went searching 93 weeks to find this [picture] God bless you."
