Denver Broncos coach Vic Fangio called George Floyd’s death a “societal issue that we all have to join in to correct,” but he said he doesn’t see discrimination or racism as problems overall in the NFL.
Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson took exception to Fangio’s view of the league, calling the Broncos coach “a joke” in a tweet Tuesday night.

Seahawks teammate Quandre Diggs also weighed in on Twitter, asking, “Is he blind??”
On Wednesday, Hall of Fame coach Tony Dungy told ESPN’s Golic and Wingo that he agreed with Fangio’s point of an NFL meritocracy on the field, but Dungy said there are still issues in the league.
