This might fall more under the category of college football because Desmond Howard is a college analyst for ESPN, but the situation does involve former NFL quarterback Phil Simms, a former Super Bowl MVP and now a CBS NFL analyst, and Howard, a former Super Bowl MVP. So well post it.
On Saturday afternoon, Howard posted a series of tweets detailing a recent encounter with Simms which allegedly ended with Simms threatening to punch Howard.
At NFL Xperience and Phil Simms just threatened 2 hit me b/c I said his son was 1 of the worse QBs in the SEC, Howard tweeted. I told (Phil) LETS GO.
Simms son, Matt, lost his starting job in 2010 to true freshman Tyler Bray at Tennessee. So apparently Desmonds analysis was spot-on.
I am DEAD serious about the Phil Simms thing, added Howard. We all thought he was joking, but he kept going and said he wanted 2 take a swing at me!!
During the season we talked about the Tenn v LSU game and I said u will see 3 of the worse QBs in the SEC Thats what Phil did not like.
It ended w/police stepping in between so I could continue my appearance w/fans.
Phil Simms is about 6-foot-3 and 230 pounds, while Howard is around 5-foot-10 and 185. Simms might not have been right to threaten Howard physically, but if the two do come to blows our money is on Howard getting the worse of it.
