Clay Travis has helped RPO in the past. That does not mean we endorse his takes on the Tennessee Titans. His negative feelings towards Titans fan-favorite Taylor Lewan have been public since 2014. I understand being upset on draft night, but Clay Travis has been openly aggressive against Lewan's personal history since the day he was drafted over Johnny Manziel. 

The Titans just drafted a back-up tackle over one of the most electrifying QB talents in college history. I'm still in shock.

Fuck me. Taylor Lewan?! Just fuck all Titan fans. And not in a good way.

— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) May 9, 2014

To be fair, I wasn't excited about the Lewan pick. I wanted Manziel too because I am an idiot. But I didn't personally, and publicly, attack the guy like Clay Travis did. That's why he should not be allowed to enjoy Taylor Lewan on the Titans.

Lewan is a gem. Probably the most interesting person to play for the Titans in the last decade (no offense Brandon Weeden). It just seems strange that Clay Travis would go so hard on the guy. 

Taylor Lewan also threatened a Michigan undergrad who reported a football rape and said he would rape her again. Really.

Here's the police report on Taylor Lewan's alleged rape threat to a rape victim: http://t.co/uCN3P5mdud

Taylor Lewan has a worse criminal profile right now than Pacman Jones did in 2005 at time of draft. Let that marinate.

GOTTA let Kuharsky know or it's not official!

@PaulKuharskyNFL Pac had one misdemeanor at time of draft. Lewan facing three and a nasty rape threat accusation in a police report.

— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) May 9, 2014

@PaulKuharskyNFL One case was fully adjudicated other hasn't been. And Lewan police report on rape is MUCH nastier than a college bar fight.

Great. RT @BruceFeldmanCFB: Taylor Lewan's ex-girlfriend says he punched #OhioState fan http://t.co/chsx2cEvz5

All of the tweets above were sent BEFORE Taylor Lewan took one snap with the Titans. Clay Travis took that draft pick personally. He would not let it go even halfway through the 2015 NFL season.

Taylor Lewan talks an awful lot for somebody as bad at his job as he is. Titan offensive line is pure shit.

— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) December 20, 2015

Flash forward to 2018 where Taylor Lewan is one of the elite Tackles in the NFL. We still have not heard one positive thing about Lewan from Clay Travis. Which seems strange for someone that has been so openly negative about the guy.  

Taylor Lewan just got kicked out of the game for making contact with an official. What an idiot.

Ref was overly aggressive on tossing Taylor Lewan, but I’m not giving Lewan benefit of the doubt. He’s been a head case all season.

— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) November 13, 2016

I'm sure Taylor Lewan is looking for the benefit of the doubt from Clay Travis. By all means, publicly shit on the guy before respectfully disapproving his behavior. For the record, Taylor Lewan was never charged with rape. Clay Travis never tweeted out that information. Which seems 100% shitty. Especially since he tried to get an interview out of him after sending those tweets. 

We need you on @3hl1045 to tell the story today @mettshow. Or you can tell it @TaylorLewan77. Bama fans, smh.

— Clay Travis (@ClayTravis) July 21, 2014

No matter what Lewan does on or off the field, Clay Travis should not be allowed to enjoy it. Since Taylor Lewan arrived in Nashville he's been nothing short of my idol.

Clay Travis should be forced to hate one of the most likable Titans in franchise history. He brought this on himself. It seems unfair that he could be so over the top about a draft pick and not pay the price. There are a lot of people that hate Clay Travis. I don't, but Taylor Lewan deserves better than that.
