Fans are calling FOX out over “racism” following a graphic they displayed ahead of the ‘Monday Night Football” clash between the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers.
The game will pit two of this season’s most impressive quarterbacks up against each other in a highly-anticipated Christmas cross-conference matchup, with Brock Purdy and Lamar Jackson the two favorites for the MVP award in 2023.
Purdy is the outright fave, but Jackson isn’t far behind. And the results of tonight’s matchup will have a telling impact on the race.
In their preview of the game, the broadcasters gave Jackson a passer rating of 69.5, something Dov Kleiman found to be a bit odd.
Fans have since taken to X to suggest that FOX is being racist.

To err is, of course, human, as we have come to find out. This was a simple error on FOX’s part; Jackson has a passer rating of 96.5 this season. FOX just put the 6 where the 9 should have been.
