Redskins RB Derrius Guice Trolls the Coronavirus Itself With Hot Tub Photo in Now-Deleted Tweet
By Dylan McCaffrey
Social distancing and self-quarantining are becoming buzzwords as the world tries to deal with a highly contagious virus. "Flatten the curve," they say. "Put six to eight feet between yourself and other people," they say.
Well, Derrius Guice of the Washington Redskins doesn't seem to be bothered about that kind of curve.
Moments later, he quoted his own tweet with a helpful message.
"10 people is the rule" -- he's not technically wrong, of course. The federal restriction from the White House recommends gatherings of less than 10 people. A full law will need to be put in place, however, to prevent people from trying to have fun.
Take these college kids, for example, who didn't let some random virus stop their spring break trips.
“If I get corona, I get corona. At the end of the day, I'm not gonna let it stop me from partying.” Words of...wisdom. Guice isn't much older than the kids in that CBS video. At 22 years old, his college days at LSU are probably still close to his heart.
Guice was drafted by the Redskins in 2018, with the 59th pick in the second round. The running back has played five games for the team, with 245 total rushing yards and 5.8 yards per carry.
5.8 yards is also a good distance to put between yourself and another person to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Someone tell Derrius about that.
