On Monday, perpetual instigator Miko Grimes lit another fire when she claimed that the Raiders offensive line deliberately let Derek Carr get sacked and hurt for telling them not to kneel for the national anthem.

Here’s some of what Grimes said while appearing on The Breakfast Club

“[Carr] was against [the offensive line] protesting. And they had a fight in the locker room before that Monday night game with the Redskins. They were fighting in the locker room, and that’s the only all-black offensive line in the NFL is the Raiders.

“Derek Carr is a Bible thumper to the fullest. And so he was basically trying to force the players to read the Bible before the game, and do all this stuff, and they were like, ‘No, that’s you.’ And so he was so upset about it, when the whole offensive line said they were going to kneel, he was like, ‘No, you’re not kneeling. This is America, you’re going to stand for the flag.’ And they got in a fight in the locker room, so when they came out to play, they basically had a plan.”

Raiders offensive linemen Donald Penn And Anthony Hamilton were quick to jump on this rumor and vehemently denied there being any truth to it.

Dianna Russini of ESPN offered an even more detailed story in response to Grimes’ claims…

Derek Carr, the Bible thumper, issued this tweet on Monday afternoon and made sure to highlight the part he wanted everyone to read…

That is an A+ bit of very subtle, yet very effective shade thrown right there. (Unless, of course, he was talking about himself. He wasn’t, was he?)
