After Kenny Stills spoke out against Jay-Z's partnership with the NFL on Monday, Dolphins coach Brian Flores played eight consecutive Jay-Z songs during a Tuesday practice, leading some to speculate if the moment was a coincidence or not.
"It doesn't sit right with me, I don't think it was handled the right way...[Jay-Z] could've reach to Colin, he could've reached out to Reid," Stills said. "Some of the ways he answered his questions talking about we're moving past kneeling like he ever protested...Choosing to speak for the people like he had spoken to the people."
\u201cKenny Stills on Jay-Z/NFL paternship: "Talking about we're moving past kneeling like he ever protested... Choosing to speak for the people like he had spoken to the people... I wonder if he's read my Facebook/IG comments or what people say to me... It didn't seem very informed."\u201d
"It didn't seem very informed," the wide receiver added.
Then, during a Tuesday practice, Flores proceeded to play eight Jay songs straight.
According to tweets from ESPN reported Cameron Wolfe, the playlist began with "Show Me What You Got" before going into "Brooklyn We Go Hard," "Ni**gas in Paris," and "Run This Town."
Flores didn't discuss the music choices but according to For The Win, Dolphins PR said that Stills knew ahead of time the music that was going to be playing. The Win also noted that the song selection "was possibly a move to motivate Stills to practice through distractions and noise."
