Dallas Cowboys star DeMarcus Lawrence defended himself after a video surfaced purportedly showing him rebuffing a child for an autograph because the kid was wearing a New York Giants jersey.
In the video, which surfaced Tuesday, Lawrence can be heard telling the unidentified kid, “get the right jersey, son!”

Lawrence received significant backlash for his actions; however, the Cowboys player responded in his own words in a tweet.
“It’s crazy how you fans want to attack me for not signing for a kid. It’s more than one kid that come to the game with Cowboys jerseys and never get to meet any player. So if I’m honest with my own kids I will never treat your kid better than mine so suck it up. #SorryNotSorry”
There don't appear to be any plans to rectify the snub.
