Whitlock Slams ESPN's Smith Over Maye 'Liar' Accusation

Media personality Jason Whitlock strongly condemned ESPN's Stephen A. Smith for labeling Patriots quarterback Drake Maye a liar. The controversy ignited when Smith, during an episode of 'First Take,' accused Maye of dishonesty regarding his awareness of Newton's presence on the show. This was in response to Maye's dismissive comments about Newton's criticism of the Patriots' success.

Whitlock took to social media to voice his disapproval, arguing that calling someone a liar is a grave accusation and that ESPN exhibits a lack of standards regarding Smith. He further accused Smith of hypocrisy, citing Smith's own past statements and alleged exaggerations. Whitlock suggested Smith's actions were driven by a desire to defend his 'race idolators.'

Meanwhile, Drake Maye has been a key player for the New England Patriots this season, leading the NFL with 2,836 passing yards. His performance has fueled the team's strong 9-2 record and has led to MVP chants from fans. The Patriots are currently positioned as favorites in their upcoming game against the Cincinnati Bengals.
