ESPN Fake News.
https://deadspin.com/i-dont-think-stephen-a-smith-watches-much-football-1831073217
ESPN is the home of the television show "First Take", hosted by Steven A. Smith and Max Kellerman. Ahead of prime time NFL match up between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Kansas City Chiefs First Take took the air at its regularly scheduled timing. When the topic of the prime time football game came up, co-host, Max Kellerman asked Stephen A. Smith his opinions and he went on to state how to "keep an eye out for tight end Hunter Henry", who hasn't played the whole season, stated "expect Derrick Johnson to be an impact player", Derrick Johnson hasn't played in the NFL in 2 years. He even referred to the now moved team as the "San Diego Chargers" more than once. Do you think it was just a tough morning or is ESPN become an untrustworthy source.
