NBC’s Tony Dungy will be on the air Saturday for the network’s coverage of the NFL Playoffs, a network spokesperson confirmed to Sports Illustrated‘s Jimmy Traina.
Dungy came under fire this week for posting a controversial tweet from his personal account that promoted anti-transgender rhetoric. It claimed that school districts across the country were “putting litter boxes in school bathrooms for students who identify as cats.” This myth has been widely debunked, including by NBC News and PolitiFact.
The tweet came in response to a video from The Daily Wire showing Minnesota state representative Sandra Feist advocating that menstrual products be placed in boys’ school bathrooms across the state.
