Crap like this can go sideways real quick. These dudes to be smart and stay safe.
They clearly aren't "racing". lol. Tee literally says "I'm having the time of my life!" in excitement. Aren't many guys out there who don't love driving cars around. I mean, what are we talking about here?
If this is a negative, wtf wouldn't be? You want them to take a knitting class or something with their $100million?

I don't remeber seeing videos of Joe weaving in and out of traffic at a high rate of speed after he signed his deal?
Folks saying nothing to see here won't be so dismissive if they crash and get injured or injure someone else.
All I'm saying is they need to be smart and not put themselves in risky situations. We've seen that athlete's and high permance vehicles aren't always a good mix. All is takes is one mistake and things can get real ugly,, real quick.
If you owned the Bengals and watched these videos after just giving them massive deals,, I guarantee your butthole would be puckering.
I don’t care for it. I certainly cringe at blowing money on cars etc. New money….. Maybe they’ll never be broke again but this be why athletes have nothing once their playing careers are over. Bankrupt.

They're our players so fans will make excuses. Post the same video with DK Metcalf and George Pickens behind the wheels and you'll get different responses.
I personally find it disturbing given what Rasheed Rice did last off season and the Raider's WR a couple years back

Ummm ... they don't appear to be racing or putting any lives at risk -- pretty sure I drove faster than that today taking my kid to her lacrosse game, lol

This is the correct take. Everyone wants to act like it's no big deal until they take someone out and they are suspended, or in jail, and derail the entire team's season.
I am surprised the story of them a few weeks ago when they were on Ja'Mar's Youtube speeding around northern KY didn't blow up bigger. It shows a pattern of bad decision making that is reckless and could frankly kill them or people around them.
The Bengals organization has to have seen the Youtube video, they need to get their arms around this. The amount of team members that were in that video is also disturbing because it shows a group that enables and encourages the behavior.

Most likely all the other cars are just driving real slow

And the Georgia football team that seems to do this on a weekly basis.

Well Ruggs was drunk. Rice and whoever else was involved were racing through a crowded highway. This didn’t look great but weren’t quite near those levels. Was Jamar’s damaged at the end?

It also isn't "quite as bad" because this one didn't end in a wreck, but I'm not sure that's the point.
It's really not that they were doing it. It's because they're compelled to film themselves doing it; twice in the last couple weeks
if they want to race, they should take it to a track. or if you're going to do this, why are you recording it? are they this dumb lol. the track is meant for this shit, you can wreck your car and wreck your life there with others who also want to risk it.
this coming from someone who also has gone way too fast on the highway before and probably at that age, but wasn't dumb enough to record it.

Here's a clip of that one. Looks like the full vid is gone now.
