Desmond Howard Apologizes for Making Chappelle's Show Joke on College GameDay

Desmond Howard channeled his inner Wayne Brady during ESPN's College GameDay on Saturday. Unfortunately, it was the Brady from the widely known Chappelle's Show skit, leading Howard to apologize later on Saturday.

After Rece Davis asked Howard if his alma mater, Michigan, could beat Ohio State this season, it sounded as though Howard responded, "Is Desmond Howard gonna have to choke a b---h?" which was a reference to Brady's Training Day-inspired sketch from Chappelle's Show.

Howard apologized later on air.

"Earlier today in the show, I'm a big Wayne Brady fan and I made a comment that was supposed to be taken as a joke," he said (h/t Sam Hellman of 247Sports).
