Sports fans love a good rumor. But sometimes, that rumor takes a life of its own and leaves a player answering for something he never even said. This same kind of thing is exactly going on with\u00a0Houston Texans<\/a>\u00a0quarterback CJ Stroud this weekend.<\/p>\n

\n

Stroud suddenly found his name tied to\u00a0conservative activist Charlie Kirk\u2019s shocking death earlier in the week<\/a>. Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, was shot and killed during a debate at Utah Valley University.\u00a0Authorities later arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson in connection with the shooting<\/a>.<\/p>\n

While the story already had the country\u2019s attention, a fake post dragged Stroud into the matter. It claimed he wanted the\u00a0NFL<\/a>\u00a0to hold a moment of silence for Kirk. The post even included a made-up quote that sounded heartfelt enough to fool many people.<\/p>\n
