He said he thinks the comments were “bad timing,” but noted he doesn’t “totally disagree” with the Saints superstar.
However, the Juice thinks Brees might be missing “the point” of what Colin Kaepernick started. Watch Simpson break it all down below.

Damn, the Juice is on a bit of a bender lately! First he drops a video about how America can improve policing during our national crisis, and then he hits fans with his thoughts on Drew Brees.
It’s almost like O.J. was just meant to be in front of the camera. It’s like he was built for the spotlight.

Say whatever you want about 2020 being an absolute trash year, but nobody saw O.J. Simpson becoming one of the calmest and most rational voices on all of Twitter.
Dude is out here filming videos about coronavirus, golf courses, police brutality and now Drew Brees. It’s truly surreal given what his life was like 25 years ago.
