Takkarist McKinley Takes Exception to Comments on Tribute to Dead Grandma

Thomas DuffyMay 1, 2017

Atlanta Falcons first-round pick Takkarist McKinley turned heads at the NFL draft by letting a few curse words fly on stage while holding a picture of his deceased grandmother.

"Fine me later, man!" he said.

On Monday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that, despite his willingness to pay up, the former UCLA defensive end will not be fined:

The night before, though, McKinley sparred on Twitter with Fox Sports' Clay Travis, who commented extensively on the decision to carry the picture around. 

It's important to note that Travis didn't seem to be poking fun at McKinley's grandmother. His point was about the picture itself. 

McKinley caught wind of Travis' tweets and fired back, writing that "the devil is alive and well...to straight disrespect someone['s] dead grandmother and think it's funny is crazy to me."
