Renfrow
Recently, NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders has spoken out against the death threats that have been made against Clemson defensive lineman Xavier Thomas, who delivered a late hit that resulted in a lacerated liver for Clemson wide receiver Hunter Renfrow.
Sanders, who is an analyst for the ACC Network, took to Twitter to express his outrage over the death threats. He wrote, “I’m appalled at the death threats Xavier Thomas has received after the unfortunate incident with Hunter Renfrow. That’s not how we do things in football. We are better than that. We must protect our players and respect the game.”
The incident occurred during the third quarter of Clemson’s game against Syracuse on October 13th. Thomas was called for a personal foul penalty after he delivered a late hit to Renfrow, who was already on the ground. Renfrow was taken to the hospital and diagnosed with a lacerated liver.
The incident has sparked a lot of debate among fans and analysts alike. Some believe that Thomas should have been ejected from the game for his actions, while others argue that it was an unfortunate accident and that Thomas should not be punished further.
Regardless of one’s opinion on the matter, Sanders is right to speak out against the death threats that have been made against Thomas. Death threats are never acceptable, and they should not be tolerated in any situation. It is important that we remember to respect the game and protect our players, no matter what.
