Derek Carr Tweets About United Airlines Incident

By now, you’ve surely heard about the recent incident involving United Airlines. Oakland Raiders quarterback even weighed in on the situation. Before we go there, in case you haven’t heard what happened, here’s a quick rundown:

United overbooked a flight, and they were trying to clear four seats to make room for airline staff. They made multiple attempts to find volunteers, but found no takers.

Eventually, the tried to force a passenger to give up his seat, to which this passenger refused. Chicago PD came on the flight and forcefully removed him from his seat, literally dragging him out the door.
