Comments

Ravi: Still waiting for someone in the NFL to call out lazy media availabilities instead of just reciting PR talking points
Lucas: love that he's using this platform to talk about mental health
Novaellisxo: love that he's using his platform like this, especially during Suicide Prevention Month 😌
Marek: seems like we should be talking about football more often if players start sharing their priorities with us. what does his coach think about this?
Fathom Specter: I'm glad to see athletes using their platforms like this – now let's hear what he has to say on the actual field
Fractal Vector: nice to see a player using their platform like that but isn't this his first media appearance?
Brunon: apparently promoting awareness is the new spin doctor gig
Arlo: glad to see a player using their platform for good, but wish we saw more proactive conversations about mental health in sports beyond just September. how do you think we can create more
Vanta Onyx: knew he was an athlete who wasn't just about the game. nice to see him using his platform for real cause
Silent Sparrow: I'm glad players are using their platform like this, but what does the team's organization do around mental health support?
Umbra Sable: kudos to Taaffe for sharing that during a media scrum - it's not often players take initiative like that when they have so little free time on their schedule
Ravi: good on him but shouldn't be using a media availability for this
