San Francisco 49ers Star Player Has suspended By Head Coach For.

Tim Ryan, a 49ers broadcaster, was suspended for making a remark about Lamar Jackson’s “dark skin.”
Tim Ryan remarked, “He’s really good at that fake, but you could not see that thing when you consider his dark skin color with a dark football and a dark uniform.”

Radio commentator Tim Ryan was suspended by the San Francisco 49ers for one game after he claimed on air that quarterback Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens has an advantage in handoff blitzes due to his “dark skin color with a dark football.”

Ryan stated on Monday’s “Murph & Mac Show” on San Francisco radio station KNBR, “He’s really good at that fake, Lamar Jackson, but when you consider his dark skin color with a dark football with a dark uniform, you could not see that thing.”

Regarding Sunday’s game, in which the Ravens defeated the 49ers 20-17, Ryan went on, “I mean, you literally could not see when he was in and out of the mesh point and if you’re a half step slow on him in terms of your vision, forget about it, he’s out of the gate.”

Jackson has run for 977 yards this season, including 101 yards in the game. Michael Vick, who currently holds the NFL single-season rushing record with 1,039 yards in 2006, is about to be surpassed by him.

Ryan’s remarks were criticized on social media by some as racist, while others said they were just “dumb.”

Ryan will be suspended for the 49ers’ Sunday game against the New Orleans Saints, the team announced in a statement.

The team stated, “We have suspended Tim Ryan for the upcoming game because we are disappointed in his comments from earlier this week.” “We have apologized and reassured the Baltimore Ravens organization that this is not a lightly handled matter,” the statement reads.

The statement went on, “As a representative of our organization, we hold Tim to a high standard and he must be more thoughtful with his words.” Tim has apologized to us both directly and in a statement to the public. Tim is a man of great integrity, and we are sure that he will develop and gain knowledge from this experience.”

Ryan expressed his regret in a team statement.

“I apologize for the words I used to try to explain the game’s conditions.” “I have the utmost regard for Lamar Jackson, a player deserving of an MVP award. I want to truly apologize to him and to everyone else I may have hurt.

Ryan was a TV commentator on Fox before joining the 49ers as a radio broadcaster six seasons ago. He was formerly a player for the Chicago Bears.

Before Ryan returns from suspension, the Rev. Jethroe Moore II, president of NAACP Silicon Valley-San Jose, expressed his desire to speak with him.

“Part of his coming back should be coming to meet with members of the African American community for better understanding of how those words can be hurtful,” Moore told NBC Bay Area. “That includes the 49er players and actually letting them talk about how they feel about the comments.”

Black Niners cornerback Richard Sherman stood up for Ryan on Thursday, saying the radio host had a point, but he should have done it more politely, according to Pro Football Talk.

Sherman admitted to reporters, “We sometimes had trouble seeing it on film. I understand how it can be taken under a certain context and be offensive to some, but if you’re saying, this is a brown ball, they’re wearing dark colors, and he has a brown arm, honestly, we were having trouble seeing it on film.”

“He’s pretending to make a play, and occasionally you can see him swinging his arm quickly, making you wonder if he has the ball. When you glance up, Ingram is running it (Mark, Ravens running back). Thus, legally speaking, that was true, but you can always phrase

Ryan’s spot in the booth will be filled on Sunday by Dennis Brown, a former 49ers defensive lineman who has worked as a pre- and post-game analyst for KNBR, the team announced.
