\n Marquise Goodwin is facing backlash from \u201cconcerned\u201d Eagles fans, who have criticized the speedy receiver for choosing his family\u2019s safety over playing in the 2020 NFL season amid the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve gotten so many messages and @\u2018s from \u2018concerned\u2019 fans telling me how stupid I am and that this COVID-19 isn\u2019t that serious,\u201d the 29-year-old wrote on Twitter<\/a> on Wednesday. \u201cI bet my bank account that there are 150k dead people that would argue different. #CarryOn\u201d<\/p>\n

Goodwin is referencing the staggering 151,000 deaths attributed to the coronavirus outbreak in the United States, which has far eclipsed initial projections. The Texas native previously stated that his family was the driving force behind his decision.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis right here? This is my reason, y\u2019all,\u201d he said in a video posted to Twitter on Tuesday while pointing to his infant daughter Marae, who was born in February. \u201cShe is the reason I am opting out for the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter choosing football so many times, I feel like I\u2019m inclined to make the right decision by finally choosing my family first, and that\u2019s real talk.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2019, Goodwin was a member of the 49ers squad that advanced to Super Bowl 54. He has caught 140 passes for 2,323 yards and 14 touchdowns since entering the league as the Bills\u2019 2013 third-round draft pick. He also competed in the 2012 Olympic Game<\/a>s in London representing the United States in the long jump.<\/p>\n

Goodwin\u2019s wife Morgan Goodwin-Snow struggled with conceiving and miscarried three times. They tragically lost a son born prematurely in 2017, the pain from which he described as \u201cunbelievable.\u201d<\/p>\n

The NFL, as well as other leagues are taking numerous precautions in an attempt to ensure player safety, but recent outbreaks in MLB among the Marlins, Phillies and now Cardinals have left many wondering if bubble-less sports can be sustained.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s known that the NFL is implementing safety protocols to combat the COVID pandemic as well as other professional sporting leagues,\u201d Goodwin added. \u201cI won\u2019t take the chance of experiencing another loss because of my selfish decision making. I can\u2019t do it. It\u2019s not something I\u2019m willing to live with, therefore I\u2019ve chosen to opt out playing only for this season.\u201d\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
