NFL fans accuse Dan Orlovsky of being biased toward Ty Simpson
NFL fans are upset with Dan Orlovsky's take on Ty Simpson.
ESPNโs Dan Orlovsky is taking major hits because of his take on Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson. Orlovsky said on โGet Upโ on Monday that he believes that Simpson is the best quarterback in this upcoming NFL Draft. โI think Ty Simpson is QB1,' Orlovsky said.
โI think Ty Simpson is the best quarterback in this class. โ โI think when you look at the body of work and what was asked of these two quarterbacks, you have to start with the question, who needed to do more to carry their football team to play well? Ty Simpson, and it's not close,โ he added.
His comments about Simpson did not sit well with many people, especially Las Vegas Raiders and NFL fans, who think Orlovsky is high on Simpson for one reason: they share the same agents. Both are represented by the CAA agency. Orlovsky is represented by CAA Sports Media agent Matt Olson, while Simpson has signed with CAA Sports for player contract negotiations.
When asked about Pat McAfee's accusation of bias, Orlovsky denied the charges. โI don't make enough money for them to pay me to say that. But people can think what they want.
