Former Lions’ DB Fired By Christian School For Old Instagram Post Where He’s Holding Alcohol

Tweet

Welcome to Strong Rock Christian School in Locust Grove, GA — where they just hired a former Detroit Lions defensive back to turn around their struggling football program.

And then 20 days later, they fired him.

Fernando Bryant, who played nine seasons in the NFL for the Jaguars, Lions and Steelers, was fired by the school before the season even started. Presumably it was due to a parent who found a three-year-old Instagram post by his wife that showed the two of them posing while holding a bottle of alcohol at a charity event.
