New England Patriots Martellus Bennett stunned Americans when he redefined the initials NFL to stand for “N****** For Lease.

” He articulated his disappointment of the NFL and affirmed that the association had fizzled in different ways: –

•Non guaranteed football contracts

Martellus Bennett did not miss his words when discussing on non guaranteed football contracts. Accompanied by his brother Michael, the Patriots tight end highlighted that NFL football contracts could not by a huge margin compare to the contracts in the NBA. This is because NBA have guaranteed contracts for their players unlike NFL.

•NFL Players Association is Never On the Offensive

Bennett, who played for the New York Giants in 2012, included that the NFLPA is never aggressive. His feeling is that they’re continually playing safe and are never offensive. He feels that they are failing to make dynamic moves. He gives an example of WWE who grew to such an extent that they began their own channel. He challenged that they could also make their own show.

•No Superstars are Ever Present during Labor Negotiations

His brother, Seattle Hawk’s Michael Bennett then again said their superstars fail to represent them during labor negotiations like they do in the NBA. “There’s no Peyton Manning going to bat for whatever remains of the players. He’s an extraordinary player, however what has he accomplished for the association?” He complains.

•There are no African American Owners in the NFL

The siblings additionally remarked on the absence of African-American proprietors in the NFL.”Growing up, dark individuals never owned anything,” Martellus Bennett said. He then asked his brother Michael Bennett whether there have ever been any African American proprietors in the history of NFL. The answer was a strong “ZERO”. “We’re check getters, not check writers.

“Michael Bennett reacted. He continued to say that the only way players could become sustainable is if they make their own companies.
