Malcolm Jenkins Comments on White Teammates Supporting Donald Trump

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback wasn’t surprised to read of the significant racial split among NFL players regarding support for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
On Tuesday, Bleacher Report’s Mike Freeman reported wrote all 21 of the white NFL players interviewed for a straw poll plan on voting for Trump. Among the 22 black players interviewed, 20 will vote for Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
Jenkins discussed his first-hand experience with the divide with Josh Paunil of PhillyMag.com:
I would say if it’s not 100, it’s probably 90 percent in this locker room.
It’s pretty accurate. [Trump] is a divisive name in a locker room. A lot of guys will talk politics, but usually not about Trump. Those might get a little heated depending on who you’re talking to. … There’s some hardcore Trump fans in this locker room… which is fine. […]
