Football aint goin nowhere. Ima live my life however i want. Watever is said…i don’t kare!” Toney tweeted. “On god, football is some i do…it don’t make me who I am.”
Hell, he came out and said he didn't even watch football outside of required film study until a couple years ago. I just don't think the dude cares all that much about it outside of the fact he's naturally gifted at some aspects of it.
I don't think you have to love the game to be a good player..to some guys it's a job. [Reply]

And before he was ever paid to be a professional athlete, he only watched film when it was required? No. He said any football. At all. I'd figured if he'd loved and enjoyed the game he'd at least watch it a bit just for fun. But nope,.not interested
He was a 20yr old ultra-athletic WR. Are you sure every successful college wideout is going out his way to put in tons of extra time watching film?Wut?
Chase opted out of the covid year entirely. I guess he clearly doesn't love the game either, right?Wut?

Who cares how much he "loves the game" if he produces. Suburban Dad wants players to maximize every yard at the cost of everything else in their life. If you aren't Michael Jordan what's the point of even having God given talent???
I guessing Toney is saying as long as we won, that’s all that matters. But I can’t figure what he meant when he said “you want a dollar”. Unless he was asking the reporter if he needed to borrow a dollar to buy Toney’s latest CD, maybe Toney sells them from his locker after games? [Reply]
Wonder who told him to delete this tweet? Kind of muddies the waters further regarding what happened there. Giants just send him home and have him feign a hamstring injury? Or was he the one feigning injury?
That Joke Would’ve Been Funny If I Was Actually Hurt Still Lol…..Irrelevant people don’t get updates ����*♂️ [Reply]

I think he’s saying he’s just happy they won and if they want to sit him on the bench and pay him money to watch, cool. [Reply]
