Team USA Quarterback Darrell Doucette Getting Trashed Over His Comments On NFL Players In The Olympics

Quarterback for Team USA, Darrell Doucette, is facing backlash and being trashed by the public after making controversial comments about NFL players potentially competing in the Olympics.

Darrell Doucette’s remarks have been criticized for being disrespectful towards the hard work and dedication of NFL athletes who may have the opportunity to represent their country on an international stage. Fans and fellow athletes have voiced their disapproval of the quarterback’s comments, calling him out for being uninformed and disparaging.

On Sunday, Doucette‘s comments on NFL players potentially joining Team USA were revealed, causing a backlash among fans who took issue with what he said.

“I think it’s disrespectful that they just automatically assume that they’re able to just join the Olympic team because of the person that they are — they didn’t help grow this game to get to the Olympics,” Doucette reportedly said according to reporter Dov Kleiman, who originally posted Doucette’s comments in August 2024 and reposted them on Sunday.

“Bro throws like a 5 year old learning to throw a football,” a fan said.

“Get ready to learn the bench,” another said with a laughing and crying emoji.

“What is he talking about,” another added. “There wouldn’t be a USA flag football team without the NFL.”

Others took Doucette’s side against the NFL stars who figure to take spots by the time 2028 rolls around.

“Same size as Bryce Young,” another added, sticking up for Doucette and his small size in comparison to most NFL quarterbacks.

“His highlights are pretty dope,” another fan said.

Darrell Doucette’s reputation has taken a hit as a result of his disrespectful comments, with many questioning his sportsmanship and respect for his peers in the NFL. It remains to be seen if the quarterback will issue a public apology or face further consequences for his words.
