Forte, who has been a team member of Urlacher for five years, wrote on Twitter at Urlacher song with his post on social media showing that he does not understand what NBA players stand for.

“It simply came to our notice then [Urlacher] is placed low of incorporation capacity, compassion, wisdom and cohesion, ”wrote Forte. “But full of pride and ignorance! I pray for those who have been blinded by their wealth, privilege and earthly fame that breeds arrogance in their hearts. And those who refuse to acknowledge racism and injustice, but choose to put their energy into justification by quickly judging the victim’s life if they themselves are more valuable, because their sins are different or not made by man. fongen. But God sees everything. ”

Forte’s tweet was retweeted by, among others, Lance Briggs, the former Bears linebacker who played 10 seasons alongside Urlacher.
