Shannon Sharpe Demands Drew Brees Retire After he Supported Anthem: 'I will never respect the man'

Drew Brees has been dragged by the media for days after voicing his support for the national anthem. For Shannon Sharpe, that's not enough.

Sharpe is furious with Drew Brees because he said he didn't agree with those who kneel during the anthem. He didn't say they shouldn't kneel or criticize them for doing so. Simply that it's not something he agrees with due to the military history in his family. That was all it took to trigger Sharpe.

Then when Brees apologized that wasn't enough. Sharpe called the apology "meaningless."

What do you think? Was this apology meaningless?

Step-by-step you will see my heart for exactly what it is and the way everyone around me sees it. I’m sorry it has taken this long to act and to participate in a meaningful way but I am your ally in this fight.

“He issued an apology, Skip [Bayless], but it’s meaningless because the guys know he spoke his heart the very first time around,” Sharpe said during the Fox Sports 1 show. “I don’t know what Drew’s going to do, but he probably should just go ahead and retire now. He will never be the same.”

The NFL Hall of Famer also said that Brees' teammate swill "never look at him the same because he spoke his heart.”

Many Americans see the national anthem as a time to pay tribute to the country they love. Is our country perfect? No. But we are the best nation in the world and strive to become better every day.

That doesn't matter to Shannon Sharpe. He wants to cancel Drew Brees at all costs because he doesn't see the national anthem as a time to protest. He didn't say others couldn't protest, just that he wouldn't do it himself.
