An unflattering leak has come out for former Las Vegas Raiders defensive tackle Christian Wilkinson.
The Raiders released the 2019 first-round pick by the Miami Dolphins last week after starting training camp on the PUP list. Las Vegas and Wilkinsin had a dispute about how he approached his rehab after suffering a season-ending Jones fracture last year.
The Las Vegas Raiders’ alleged kissing incident
Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, there was an alleged incident in the Raiders locker room involving Wilkinson, another player, and an attempted kiss on the forehead.
“Christian again from speaking to people inside the locker room, I think what everybody is dancing around and tiptoeing around is the fact that when you speak to people there inside the locker room, they say that Christian playfully went to kiss a teammate on top of his head, and those same people said that that player took offense to it,” Schefter said on “The Pat McAfee Show” on Monday.
“So that’s what everybody’s been dancing around and tap dancing around an incident in the locker room where he allegedly playfully kissed a teammate on top of his head. That teammate felt offended by it. And that’s what a lot of this talk and speculation that people have just been floating around out there.”

Fans reacted to the alleged incident on social media
“They released a 100M dollar man cause he was zesty yeah the raiders cooked!!,” wrote a fan.
“I know we are all teasing Wilkins, but ironically the player who got offended by a playful kiss on the head is probably actually gay,” posted another.
“I guess the boys don’t like kisses anymore. The locker room has sure changed,” argued a fan.
“I don’t buy it. I think this is just the story they’re feeding us to prevent further embarrassment or harassment. You all know (expletive) well it wasn’t a “playful kiss on the head.” The guy said it was “weird – very weird.” It’s definitely something worse,” wrote another.
“Yea keep him out of the NFL,” posted a fan.
“I love how the NFL was promoting all this Pride Month stuff then this happens. Nfl wanna be woke, here it is, cant get more woke than this…. See how this plays out!!??” wrote another.
