NFL Players and Personalities Speak Out Against Thursday Night Football Changes
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes expressed his frustration with the NFL's decision to allow teams to be scheduled for two Thursday night games in one season by posting a facepalm emoji on Twitter. Other NFL players, including former quarterback Robert Griffin III and linebacker Devon Kennard, also criticized the move, citing concerns about player safety. Giants owner John Mara also voiced his opposition, stating that the decision should have been vetted by the Health and Safety committee and the Competition Committee before being pushed through.
