Cris and Nick React to Antonio Brown’s Helmet Dispute & Gruden’s Support | NFL | FIRST THINGS FIRST
On September 4th, 2019, Antonio Brown’s helmet saga took a new turn when he publicly criticized the NFL for not allowing him to wear his preferred helmet, saying “I will not be playing in the NFL anymore.”
The situation has escalated over the past few weeks with Brown continuing to push for the use of his old helmet, despite the NFL’s stance that it does not meet safety standards. The Oakland Raiders have also been involved in this dispute, with head coach Jon Gruden defending Brown’s desire to wear the helmet.
First Things First hosts, Cris Carter and Nick Wright, weighed in on the situation in their latest show, discussing Brown’s helmet dispute and Gruden’s support.
Cris Carter began by expressing surprise at Gruden’s support, stating that “everyone in the NFL is responsible for the safety of the players.” He emphasized the importance of using equipment that meets safety standards, saying “as a player, I never questioned whether my equipment was safe for me to use.”
Nick Wright agreed with Carter, adding that “the league has a responsibility to uphold their safety standards, and players have to comply with those standards.”
Both hosts acknowledged the unique situation that Brown finds himself in, having used the same helmet for most of his career, but they emphasized the importance of following the league’s policies.
Carter commented that “the NFL has done extensive research to ensure the helmets being used meet safety standards, and that’s what’s important.” Wright echoed this sentiment, stating that “change can be difficult, but in this case, it’s necessary to ensure player safety.”
In conclusion, Carter and Wright were of the opinion that Brown’s helmet dispute with the NFL is misguided, and that Gruden’s support is misplaced. The hosts called for adherence to the league’s safety standards and urged all players to take their safety seriously.
