Actor Jae Head, who played Sean “TJ” Tuohy in ‘The Blind Side’, has jokingly informed everyone that he had nothing to do with the money Michael Oher is claiming he didn’t get.
Oher has filed a lawsuit against the Tuohys following what seemed to be a great relationship given that the family took him in and helped get him on the football team at Ole Miss. But the former NFL offensive lineman has accused them of making him sign a conservatorship and never actually adopted him.
He also asserts that the family raked significant sums from the movie while he never received a penny.
Barstool Sports recently tweeted a photo of the character Head played in the film along with the caption: “This little F-er probably took all of Big Mike Oher’s money for himself.”
The actor, who was 11 when the movie was filmed, reposted the tweet to his TikTok this week and lip-synced the words “I didn’t do F-ing S! I didn’t F-ing do this. I’m not worried about this.”
He captioned the post: “@BarstoolSports thanks for my first scandal.”

The real SJ, who is now 30, has spoken to Barstool Radio on the matter and claimed to understand why Michael is upset, although he’s also upset over how the former NFL player feels about his family.
“I get … why he’s mad. I completely understand. It stinks that it’ll play out on a very public stage,”he said. “You will never hear me say anything bad about Michael Oher in any capacity other than I’m upset that he feels the way that he does. I think some of the things that were mentioned in the probate or book or whatever I don’t necessarily agree with and or remember happening like that.”
SJ also denied having received millions from the film’s proceeds, as alleged by Michael.
