Multiple NFL players spoke out against Jaylen Waddle playing in the National Championship via Twitter after watching Waddle pull in a reception in the first quarter.
Here is what they had to say:
Darius Leonard – Indianapolis Colts
Cmon nick don’t let Waddle do this, he’s hurt and shouldn’t be out there! Cmon bro! Sometimes you gotta protect players from themselves!

Patrick Mahomes II – Kansas City Chiefs
Respect the heart! But you can’t let that man be out there! https://t.co/QqaXYQ1EEX

Jalen Ramsey – Los Angeles Rams
Who advised 17 for Bama to play? Whoever it is definitely doesn’t have his best interest at heart. As a competitor, I understand why he would want to play, but no way he should be out there with the future he has ahead. I hope he can stay safe.

I really hope all these kids can stay healthy this game. A lot of good NFL talent on that field.
