The Bulls<\/a> waived Ivey on Monday due to conduct detrimental to the team following a video he posted, where he claimed the NBA was celebrating “unrighteousness” by acknowledging and embracing Pride Month.\u00a0<\/p>\n Henderson tweeted the video of Ivey, which has now gone viral, and responded with a Bible verse.\u00a0<\/p>\n CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/a><\/p>\n New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel watches during the first half of the AFC Championship NFL football game against the Denver Broncos, Sunday, Jan. 25, 2026, in Denver.

I want to tell you, I love TreVeyon,” he said. “I love the person. He cares deeply about our team. He cares deeply about his faith. He cares deeply about his family, his wife, the people in our building. And so I want them to be able to express what they believe in their heart and in their mind, but also want to make sure that they\u2019re educated. And we want to be inclusive.\u00a0<\/p>\n PATRIOTS STAR APPEARS TO SHOW SUPPORT FOR EX-BULLS PLAYER AFTER RANT AGAINST NBA’S PRIDE MONTH CELEBRATION<\/a><\/p>\n “Everything we want to do [is] to provide an environment for people to want to feel comfortable, but also to share their personal beliefs. And then also, we represent the team. And we represent the organization.”<\/p>\n Vrabel received a follow-up question, asking if he would talk to Henderson or the team about what transpired on social media. He responded by saying, “I usually try to,” though he noted, “(We\u2019re) never going to tell them how to feel.”<\/p>\n New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson (32) before Super Bowl LX against the Seattle Seahawks at Levi’s Stadium on Feb. 8, 2026.

We\u2019re always talking about those kinds of things. We\u2019re trying to educate them, no different than myself or you guys or my kids.”<\/p>\n Henderson is coming off his rookie season with the Patriots, racking up 911 yards on the ground with nine touchdowns, helping New England get to the Super Bowl. Henderson had just four starts under his belt in Vrabel\u2019s first year leading the team, as Rhamondre Stevenson was also a key figure in the Patriots\u2019 backfield.\u00a0<\/p>\n Ivey has been posting similar videos with rants in recent weeks, as the 24-year-old has noted in the past he\u00a0deals with depression<\/a>.<\/p>\n “The world can proclaim LGBTQ, right?” Ivey said in\u00a0his latest video<\/a>. “They proclaim Pride Month and the NBA. They proclaim it. They show it to the world. They say, \u2018Come join us for Pride Month to celebrate unrighteousness.\u2019 They proclaim it. They proclaim it on the billboards. They proclaim in the streets. Unrighteousness. So, how is it that one can\u2019t speak righteousness? Who are they to say that this man is crazy?”<\/p>\n New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel looks on prior to an NFL preseason football game against the Minnesota Vikings at U.S. Bank Stadium on August 16, 2025 in Minneapolis, Minnesota.\u00a0 (Kevin Sabitus\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP<\/a><\/p>\n Ivey also claimed in a separate video that\u00a0Catholicism was a false religion<\/a>.<\/p>\n Fox News\u2019 Ryan Gaydos and The Associated Press contributed to this report.<\/p>\n Follow Fox News Digital\u2019s\u00a0sports coverage on X<\/a>\u00a0and subscribe to\u00a0the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter<\/a>.<\/p>\n Scott Thompson is a sports writer for Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n![\"Mike](\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/nfl-patriots-mike-vrabel-012626-2.jpg\")
