From other players tweets showing what really went down, it looks like the word is already not allowed and that's what GP called him out for. Probably don't use the quote next time. I remember a coach kicking a metal door off the frame and walked him and was seriously angry cause a black player used the word to another black player. We all (whole team in addition to the two players who said it) did sprints till we dropped. Word was not used after that. Some of us knew it was coming when we heard his office door slam in the hallway.
My guess is this player at FW was being bratty and GP decided to dress him down for all of it.
Sure, I get that.
But mine was a two-part question.
The first is whether it's culturally wrong for a football program to bar the use of the word by Black players during football operations; I would be interested in hearing answers from the sense of: What am I missing?
The second is a legal question of the boundary of protected speech.
