No matter how good a player is, he’s going to get criticized by fans on Twitter, Instagram and every other social media platform. While some players engage and reply to angry fans, most ignore the outside noise.
And then there’s the select few who get to read those scolding tweets on TV.
A staple of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” is his “Mean Tweets” segment where athletes and celebrities read tweets about them out loud. On Thursday, Jared Goff, Todd Gurley and Clay Matthews read mean tweets.
Given the seasons Gurley and Goff had in 2019, those were only two of many critical tweets posted about them. Goff threw a career-high 16 interceptions, while Gurley failed to crack 1,000 yards rushing (but still scored 14 touchdowns).
The tweet about Matthews was the best, even if it made absolutely no sense.
