It’s probably a good thing Conor McGregor chose MMA to put his athletic skills to use instead of football, baseball, or any sport where throwing factors in.
McGregor was at AT&T Stadium for Sunday’s Cowboys-Jaguars game, and was on the field before the game.
An honour to be on the field here in Dallas, Texas supporting the @dallascowboys!
Proper 12 is everywhere out here and WE LOVE IT!

And during that, he showed off how *not* to throw a football.
It’s hard to figure out where to even start when evaluating this throwing technique. It truly looks like McGregor has never picked up a football in his life.

Naturally, Twitter had plenty to say on McGregor’s very bad quarterbacking skills.

McGregor must’ve done a good job motivating the Cowboys, at least. Dallas blew out Jacksonville 40-7 after McGregor provided some pregame motivation.

He’s not that good but might be better than most of the internet trolls.
