Following his recent d3ath, tributes for conservative activist Charlie Kirk continue to come in.
Before the Dallas Cowboys took the field on Sunday to take on the New York Giants, the organization was one of many teams that held a moment of silence in honor of Kirk.
Kirk, a conservative activist and Trump ally, was tragically sh0t and kllled after a single bullet struck his neck while holding an event at Utah Valley University. The event was the first stop on Kirk’s “American Comeback Tour.”
Days later, the FBI announced the arrest of 22-year-old Tyler Robinson from Utah in connection with the “politically motivated assassination.” President Donald Trump made that announcement himself while revealing that Robinson’s father turned him in.
The Associated Press reported that Robinson’s father “saw surveillance photos and worked with a pastor to encourage surrender in Kirk’s klling.”
The Tennessee Titans, Miami Dolphins, New York Jets, New Orleans Saints, and Dallas Cowboys held moments of silence in honor of Christian Kirk, but not every team joined in.
Four NFL Teams Refuse To Honor Charlie Kirk

Multiple NFL teams hosting home games conducted pregame tributes to slain Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk.
Many fans remained quiet while the fan base of the Saints reportedly booed during the moment of silence.
All put Kirk’s photo on their video boards and asked the home crowd to stand and pay respects in the wake of Kirk’s sh00ting last Wednesday.
Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk would later report that four NFL games did not honor Kirk before their Week 2 games:
Bengals vs. Jaguars: No moment of silence
Lions vs. Bears: No moment of silence
Titans vs. Rams: No moment of silence
Ravens vs. Browns: No moment of silence
There’s still a Sunday night game and two Monday night games to be played, so we’ll see if any other teams decided to add their names to this list in week 2.

NBC dropped a huge announcement when they roped in the services of Michael Jordan. With the league returning to the network next season, NBC is said to have some big plans with the Chicago Bulls legend. While it is clear that he will be a part of the overall coverage, the media outlet has remained tight-lipped about the same. Till now, it was only known that Jordan will be acting as a ‘special contributor’ for NBC. But now, there might be some shocking details emerging.
Speaking on the topic, Alex Sherman of ‘CNBC’ provided some insight into the matter. He pointed out that the preliminary plans for Jordan are to appear in taped segments. This way, Jordan will be providing analysis on the games. These tapes are expected to be aired either at halftime or at the end of each game.
Michael Jordan’s role on NBA on NBC revealed:
“I’m told the plan is for Michael Jordan to appear in only taped segments during the season to provide analysis that will air during pregame or halftime shows. How that evolves over time is still to be determined.”
