Toub was critical about what President Donald Trump said about the kickoff rule. He said, “He doesn’t even know what he’s looking at. He has no idea what’s going on with the kickoff rule. I hope he hears it.” It is not a surprise that there are people across the NFL who are critical of him.

There are a lot of fans who reacted to what Toub had to say about Trump on Twitter:
I like Toub from his time with the Bears. Awesome Special Teams Coach. But why so triggered? Total TDS apparently. BTW, the new kickoff format totally sucks and I do know what I’m looking at.

Since 1945, starting with Truman, every U.S. president has had something to say about the NFL. Nothing new here. pic.twitter.com/H7ex4KAVDD

Toub doesn’t even know what he’s looking at on the kick-off rule. He’s lost games purely because he DOES NOT understand. Go look at the tape!

The new kick off rule sucks. You have TDS and can fuck off!

lol, imagine being an NFL coach and instead of worrying about rebounding from a loss, you worried about what Trump thinks of the kickoff rule. 😂😂

There are a lot of people who don’t like this kickoff rule. This is just Toub not liking what Trump has to say anyways.
