You won’t see Emmanuel Sanders in a “Free Brady” t-shirt any time soon.
The Denver Broncos wide receiver made it clear that he’s against putting slightly less air pressure in footballs, even going as far to say the Patriots should’ve been stripped of their Super Bowl championship for deflategate. He was speaking to kids at Ed McCaffrey’s football camp when he was asked about deflategate, and he didn’t hold back his thoughts.
“I’m kind of mad,” Sanders said, via 9 News. “I don’t think that they should be the Super Bowl champion this year.”
“You aren’t supposed to cheat. Cheating is not good, especially when you’ve got guys who are working their butts off for 365 days out of the year and one person cheats –- whether it helps them win the Super Bowl or not, they still cheated and shouldn’t be a champion.”
That’s a scorching hot take from Sanders. Who knows, maybe he was just giving the kids a lesson on why cheating is bad. Or, he’s salty about losing to the Patriots 43-21 in Week 9 and not getting an opportunity for revenge in the AFC Championship game.
