FOX Sports 1’s Speak For Yourself host Jason Whitlock is under fire after an incredibly stupid Colin Kaepernick skit on his show Tuesday afternoon.
One of his top critics has been Shannon Sharpe, a colleague of Whitlock’s at FOX Sports.
Sharpe took to social media to slam Whitlock over the skit, which showed an employee dressed as Kaepernick with a wig and black glove.
It was pretty clear that no one in the studio thought this segment through.
Great to have Kap stop by the studio today. pic.twitter.com/2UPuyCdWdK

There was immediate backlash for the skit and Sharpe made it clear that he wants to address the issue head on Wednesday.
I'm going to address it with head of Fox sports/FS1 . This is UNACCEPTABLE https://t.co/YNzHmSoD5l

I totally denounce his skit. Hopefully we can discuss tomorrow https://t.co/a8qWh0aTYJ

Let’s hope Sharpe gets his opportunity to speak out on Whitlock’s latest nonsense, because he certainly seems like he has a lot to say. This should be good.
