At what point does ESPN fire him?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is insane. Peter Schrager is one of the best NFL media personalities,&#8221; one person said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I can\u2019t stand Ryan Clark, just cause you played at the highest level doesn\u2019t mean you know better, there are countless former players across all networks that spew nonsense and show every single day that they have no idea what they\u2019re talking about,&#8221; another person commented.<\/p>\n<p>We highly doubt Clark will be disciplined by ESPN for this stunt, especially since the NFL season just started.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p>That being said, Clark could&#8217;ve handled this situation much better.
