    This crosses the line between cruel and evil

    Former Austin Peay DB victim of brutal Atlanta Falcons tryout hoax

    https://touchdownwire.usatoday.com/2...s-tryout-hoax/

    Juantarius Bryant, a former defensive back at Austin Peay, received a text from a 404 area code claiming to be from Atlanta Falcons defensive coordinator Dean Pees.

    The text was not from Pees, it was from an impostor.

    Bryant’s agent has been in touch with the Falcons.

    Bryant showed total class in his response to being the victim of a cruel hoax.

    When Bryant arrived at what he believed was going to be a tryout, he was turned away.

    COVID-19 protocols limited the number of tryout players a team could have at its rookie minicamps.


    Dean Pees

    Something tells me we will be seeing his mugshot sooner than later, but hey I'm sure he is a nice young man who feeds the homeless on the weekend and helps out the elderly when he can, and just lights up whatever room he enters.

    Not sure why you are hating on the kid. Actually, sounds like he has his head screwed on right and handled the situation with class.

    Something tells me that if an NFL team wanted you to tryout for them you would get more one text message.

    I wouldn't be surprised if it is a hoax of a hoax, and end result was him trying to get a tryout out of sympathy.

    Vast majority of this country is getting stupider by the day, we have all the information we need at the snap of our figures, yet most are only worried about what Melissa did this weekend, or liking some childish tik tok video, Or liking that big butt girl on Instagram, And then there is the small percentage who actually use there brain and can think for themselves and gather and discard information and come to a reasonable conclusion on things. Vast majority will win out in the end sadly cause they are the ones who eat up the shit the media says to them without using any part of there brain. And i don't see things improving anytime soon.

    Two thoughts come to mind. First, his agent needs to be fired. Wouldn't he be contacting the team to verify the facts of his being invited to camp? An agent is actually going to say, "You got a text. Just drive on up there."? Second, his saying he won't persecute the person who sent him the text cries "BS" all over it. He probably don't want it brought out publicly because he knows the sender. Not buying it.

    Yes, more than likely it was one of his buddies. As with 99% of everything on the internet, who knows what is real.
