Did you post this with your tinfoil hat on?
If you think Newton didn't have a contract until now because he's black you're out of your mind. It was said months ago that he was in no rush to sign a contract. This is not a Colin Kaepernick situation.
Did I claim he wasn't signed because hes black, or did I point out the likelihood of pundits, who are paid to create controversy where none exists, would point to the situation and raise the question? (Throwing shoulder/foot injuries are the obvious reasons, but that never stopped Screamin A Smith before...)
The league had very real and obvious motive to avoid such a situation. What's far more likely is Kraft's PR team held the news to try to get ahead of JealousGate episode 2020. Look at all the money he's throwing away to try to pretend he didn't get caught on camera with his pants down. Appearances are all that matter to that clown at this point.
But sure, the PR angles had nothing to do with it. Why not claim Covid is a hoax and we can all trust the police while you're at it.
