Do You Put This Guy in Your NFL Lockeroom?

Can he play ball? If so, he will be in a locker room.
"I used to believe in the heliocentric thing, like we used to revolve around the sun and stuff, but then I started seeing, like, flat-Earth stuff … it was kind of interesting," he said. "They started bringing up valid points. … I mean, I don’t know."
It’s probably the type of situation, where if he is significantly better than another player, he’ll stick around. But if he’s fighting for a position with a guy and they’re pretty equal, this would be the type of thing that would be a differentiator.
It is certainly a red flag.

Whichever team drafts/signs him already has at least 4 guys dumber than him. This is a non issue if he is good enough.
LOL maybe he’s playing dumb like a fox and if he’s got good times and a solid vertical jump he’ll be remembered as “that kid”.
Maybe the NFL should put him in touch with people who have been to space and people who have seen the very edge of the earth and have a conversation with them. Well, with one side of them because there are zero people on the other side...
In all honesty, though… It’s not just an intelligence thing. People like this are obviously easily deceived and prone to not be able to discern BS.
That can easily lead to things that can come back on the team. If they get caught in financial scandal, duped into illegal/immoral activity, extorted or otherwise.

A football field is relatively flat. He'll be ok as long as he has both feet down before he falls off the edge...
If he balls out, the press and the fans will love him. Oddballs are revered in sports.
His use of heliocentric while talking about flat earth theory having some good points has got me all confused.
Probably a common word of you slip down that rabbit hole. It is probably one of their big words they use to make them seem smart to the flat earthers. It's basically the antivaxxer playbook.
If it's due to CTE, well that's just tragic. If it's just because he lacks critical thinking skills, well that's just dumb.
Somehow, Kyrie Irving was admitted to Duke and believes Earth is flat, so I suppose it depends on if he can ball.
I think some people believe being open-minded about everything is a positive quality. Close to the “I do my own research” and “I’m just asking questions” crowd.
You never know what to believe anymore from some people. He might just be trying to get attention, and it's working.
Being open minded is one thing, and a good thing. Being gullible and short on critical thinking skills is something quite different.
I agree, but these people confuse ignorance with being “open-minded.”
