"I Wanna Make Sure They’re Educated": Mike Vrabel Makes Feelings Known on TreVeyon Henderson Supporting Jaden Ivey After Bulls Release

Vrabel said players can share personal beliefs but must be educated and represent the team, after Henderson backed a waived NBA guard.

  • On Tuesday at the NFL owners' meetings in Phoenix, New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel addressed running back TreVeyon Henderson's social media support for Jaden Ivey, an NBA guard waived by the Chicago Bulls.
  • Following anti-LGBTQ+ comments on Instagram, the Chicago Bulls waived Ivey on Monday, citing "conduct detrimental to the team" regarding the NBA's Pride Month initiatives.
  • In response to the release, Henderson posted a Bible verse on X, "Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake," and reposted support from New York Jets cornerback Azareye'h Thomas.
  • Stressing the "fine line" between personal expression and representing the Patriots, Vrabel stated he wants players "educated" and inclusive while maintaining open dialogue.
  • The coach emphasized providing an environment where players feel comfortable sharing beliefs while acknowledging their responsibilities as representatives of the organization.
