A Buffalo Bills assistant coach gave a brutal take on rookie quarterback Jake Fromm in the wake of his text message controversy.
It was last week when a 2019 text emssage was unveiled showing the former Georgia Bulldogs QB stating in the conversation that guns should be made more expensive so only “elite white people” can buy them.
“I am extremely sorry that I chose to use the words ‘elite white people’ in a text message conversation,” Fromm wrote on Twitter. “Although I never meant to imply that I am an elite white person,’ as stated later in the conversation, there’s no excuse for that word choice and sentiment.”
Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll said recently that Fromm is well aware he still has a lot of work to do in regards to his teammates.
“He knows that he has a lot of work to do to earn the trust of his teammates back,” Daboll said Friday, per ESPN. “And I’m a big believer in actions speak louder than words. So I know he’ll be committed to that. We have a strong leadership group, a strong culture in our room. Jake is a young man who apologized and, you know, where we go moving forward.
“He’s got a lot to do to earn the trust and confidence of the players and everyone else in the building back. I know he’ll work hard to do that.”
