Pat McAfee Says “Tell Your People You Love Them” While Disclosing Why He Missed Raw

Pat McAfee was surprisingly absent from his week’s episode of Raw, with The Miz filling in for part of the broadcast. At the time, it wasn’t known why the former NFL player was missing, but it would later be reported he was dealing with a personal family issue. And now, during his popular YouTube show, he has opened up to his viewers, revealing that his father-in-law unexpectedly passed away and therefore advised them to “ tell your people you love them. ”

37-year-old McAfee recently made mainstream press after he caused controversy by calling WNBA player Caitlin Clark a “ white b*tch ” during an episode of his show. However, seemingly thanks to an apology and the fact McAfee has a large and loyal audience, this would quickly blow over, and it is doubtful it caused him any issues with his WWE employment.
