NFL legend blasts league for choosing Bad Bunny as halftime performer: 'Anything for money'

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says President Donald Trump would prefer to watch Kid Rock instead of Bad Bunny for the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show.

Hall of Fame running back Eric Dickerson blasted the NFL for selecting Bad Bunny to be its halftime performer in the Super Bowl.

Dickerson, 65, called the NFL one of the most corrupt organizations there is and said they will do anything for money.

"I just don't. I don't see why they chose that. The NFL does stuff that baffles your mind.So, they'll do anything for money," Dickerson told TMZ in a recent interview. "I thank God I had a chance to play in the National Football League."

"But as an entity, the NFL is one of the most corrupt organizations it is."

Dickerson said he doesn’t understand why the NFL didn’t choose someone with ties to San Francisco.

"Look, why don't we get somebody from right here from home? What how about someone from right here in San Francisco, all these artists right here in the area to play at the Super Bowl? Somebody (who speaks) English, you know?" Dickerson said.
