Texans’ Bizarre Passover Tweet Sparks Debate Among Fans and Players

The Texans tweeted out a message to their fans who are celebrating Passover starting on Friday.

The post includes two photoshopped images of tight end Brevin Jordan (No. 9) and wide receiver Brandin Cooks (No. 13). Instead of holding footballs, though, they are holding giant matzos, which is a kosher flatbread used for Passover by members of Jewish faith.

While the thought was there, the post received backlash, as some felt being bizarre and ignorant on the holiday. Other fans defended the Texans, saying it wasn’t harmful and that it was actually a funny post.
