David Tepper, the owner of the Carolina Panthers, gets called out by Keyshawn Johnson over his misbehavior during the match against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Panthers lost disastrously to the Jaguars by a score of 26-0, which in turn raised the tensions in the stadium for the fans. After being provoked by a fan, Tepper lost his cool and ended up throwing his drink at him.
The NFL released a statement over Tepper’s stint and said, “All NFL personnel are expected to conduct themselves at all times in ways that respect our fans and favorably reflect on their team and the NFL.” Tepper has since apologized for his conduct as well but it doesn’t seem like Keyshawn Johnson believes his reformation and called him out on the ‘Undisputed’ show.

Keyshawn Johnson calls Tepper a “spoiled” man in response to his disorderly behavior
On the latest episode of the ‘Undisputed ‘ show, Keyshawn Johnson took to stand to dissect David Tepper’s outrageous behavior at a match recently. Tepper was fined a staggering amount of $300 thousand for throwing a drink at a fan, but Johnson doesn’t think the fine will change Tepper’s attitude.
Johnson said, “He’s been spoiled rotten ever since he bought the Carolina Panthers. You never heard of David Tepper when he was a minority owner with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Once he acquired the Carolina Panthers, his name just..all of a sudden, every single year, there’s something with him.” Thus, even though he’s been fined by the NFL, the fans won’t be surprised if Tepper repeats his actions anytime soon. But with all that said, this is the apology that was issued by Tepper.
David Tepper’s apology over a wave of backlash against his name
Tepper is one of the richest owners in the league with a net worth of over $20.6 billion. And to further wow our readers, the $300K fine would be equivalent to only 1% of 1% of his entire wealth. There’s no doubt about the fact that the fine won’t be a learning curve for Tepper as he’s not exactly running short of money. In response to the controversial incident, Tepper wrote in an apology.
