FS1 host Craig Carton found himself in a unique situation earlier this week when he corrected a piece of content his show’s Twitter put out.
On Tuesday, Carton was debating whether or not New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones would be considered elite at the end of the 2023 season. Craig said he wouldn’t consider Jones a top-10 QB in the NFL. He gave a number of names of other quarterbacks in the league that would easily rank ahead of Jones.
Not long after the segment on The Carton Show on Tuesday, the show’s Twitter published a now-deleted tweet that had quarterbacks ranked from 1-10 and a clip of Carton talking about Jones.
But Craig Carton took issue with what was presented. He later tweeted that the show account took him out of context.
“For whatever it is worth (not much I’m sure) I never ranked the QB’s this morning. The post that was put out was 100% out of context and not at all what I said,” Carton wrote. “For the record, Patrick Mahomes is the best QB in the world. Go back to whatever you were doing.”
Carton didn’t specifically rank the quarterbacks, but he did list them. So the show account compiling a ranking wasn’t completely out of order. But, in addition to the original tweet misspelling Aaron Rodgers, it’s not the best look when the show host publicly takes issue with something his social media team put out there.
