ESPN’s John Clayton Rides Zip Line in Indy, Cris Carter Chickens Out (Videos)

February 2, 2012 by Larry Brown • Comments

One of the attractions at the Super Bowl in Indianapolis this week has been the zip line. NFL.com reporter Jeff Darlington spent plenty of time this week goading ESPN reporter John Clayton and finally convinced “The Professor” to take a ride. That went down on Wednesday. Unfortunately Darlington’s video doesn’t contain any footage of Clayton going down the zip line, so we’ll take his word for it.

Now the video you won’t get to see is Cris Carter riding the zip line. Wanna know why? Because he chickened out. Observe:

Yup, this humiliation is your payback for saying Calvin Johnson wasn’t elite. 96 catches, 1,681 yards, and 16 touchdowns, Cris. Eat it.
