Former NFL players criticized Logan Paul after he withdrew from a proposed $1 million fight, citing instructions he said came from WWE, a development with crossover sports-entertainment relevance. Logan Paul had offered $1 million to any NFL player, and Le’Veon Bell and Breiden Fehoko were slated opponents before he said he could not proceed. He posted on X that WWE considered him too valuable, while Bell alleged he faked a phone call and Fehoko criticized the statement. The exchange followed Paul’s ongoing public feud with Tom Brady, who used an insult in a video with Rob Gronkowski. Paul wrote that he is returning to WWE Raw on Mondays on Netflix.
