TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Miami Dolphins receiver Kenny Stills says he and team owner Stephen Ross have agreed to disagree.
Stills objected to Ross hosting a recent fundraiser for Donald Trump, and said there was a contradiction in the Dolphins owner supporting both the president and racial equality. Following a team practice Wednesday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Stills said he recently spoke with Ross about the matter and agreed there were no hard feelings.
He earlier noted Ross is the founder of RISE, a nonprofit that strives to eliminate racial discrimination, champion social justice and improve race relations. Ross last week said he’s a champion of racial equality but also a longtime friend of Trump’s.
Stills has been outspoken on the issues of social justice, equality and discrimination.
