Charlie Kirk, a right-wing conservative political activist, was fatally shot during a public appearance at Utah Valley University on Wednesday (September 10). Following the incident, many public figures have spoken out about the incident. As per certain tweets, Houston Texans quarterback CJ Stroud was also alleged to have made a public comment on the matter.
As per the latest reports, the purported comments made by Stroud on Kirke’s shooting are completely false. The Houston Chronicle reported that Stroud’s last media interaction happened on Monday, and Kirk wasn’t mentioned anywhere in the conversation.
Due to multiple false social media claims, however, many people believed Stroud had weighed in on the matter, including Governor Greg Abbott.
