Ryan Clark tore Robert Griffin III to take on the rivalry of Angel Reese Kitlin Clark

Robert Griffin III was one of those people who got caught up in the latest story of the rivalry between basketball star Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark, saying that the Chicago Sky star “hate Caitlin Clark.”

“After seeing Caitlin Clark's terrible foul on Angel Reese and the aftermath, Angel Reese can't continue lying that he doesn't hate Caitlin Clark,” Griffin wrote to X.

Griffin later claimed that his statement was “purely based on basketball,” and that it was simply a “sports take.”

A temper flapped between Reese and Clark after Feverguard committed a terrible foul ahead into the sky. It was one of the big moments of Indiana's 93-58 blowout victory on Saturday.

Ryan Clark, a current ESPN NFL analyst and former Pittsburgh Steelers star, responded to Griffin's comments on the Lee Clark drama. Clark suggested that Griffin joined the “Train of Hate” and fell in line with the positions taken by other media.

“When RG3 jumps on a train of hate or angry train, it follows what they see from Keith Orberman from Dave Portnoy. They poured into Angel Reese to make her the villain and into the story of Caitlyn Clark's heroic or hero.”

“One thing we know about RG3 is that he hasn't had a conversation at his home about what black women have to endure in this country. About how young black women and athletes like Angel Reese had to deal with Kate Linklark's rising and being on the other side of the ascension to stardom.”

Clark then highlighted the marriage of his former NFL quarterback.

“If you were an RG3, when was your last time in your home (which Angel Reese handled)?” Clark asked. “You were both in your marriage and you were married to a white woman, so you couldn't do that.”

Griffin is from Estonia and is married to seven gretes.

“You didn't have the opportunity to have a conversation to educate you about what they feel, what black women are dealing with, what they see when thinking about the young angel lease.

Griffin left ESPN in 2024. He reported that Griffin's firing was a cost-cutting move.

“When I worked at RG3, he was making this kind of joke about milk and how much he loves him and how important it was. And he always points out his wife's white skin tone on social media, as if her skin tone was something special to her.

“I met a woman. I had a conversation with her. I think she's more than that. But that also leads to something that deals with a lot from black men who have either chosen to date or marry or choose to marry outside of their race. They always feel they have to support women who support women they've married and women who are with black women.”

Griffin caught Wind in Clark's comments and took him to social media to share his reaction.

“It's co-ill that Ryan Clark is personally attacking me and my family with sports opinions, and is co-ill, spineless and weak,” Griffin wrote on X along with a video that lasts more than two minutes longer. Griffin also said several times that Clark's claims were “out of scope.”

Kate Rinklerk and Reese have a huge history, dating back to the 2023 NCAA Women's Basketball National Championship. Both players downplayed the incident.

Clark told ESPN's Holly Lowe after the third quarter that there was “no malicious” behind the foul.
