NFL Prospect Tip Reiman Believer In ‘Birds Aren’t Real’ Movement

Former Illinois football star Tip Reiman had the most memorable quote of the NFL Combine so far … telling reporters he believes birds are not what they seem!!

For those who aren’t in on the joke … the “Birds Aren’t Real” movement made waves a few years ago, when a guy named Peter McIndoe created a satirical conspiracy that winged animals are actually spy drones for the U.S. Government.

A bunch of people joined in on the troll job … and now, it’s even made its way to professional football.

Reiman — who had 203 yards and three touchdowns last season — revealed his allegiance with the movement on Thursday … hitting reporters with several questions that support his stance.

“Have you ever seen a baby pigeon?” Reiman asked, according to Owen Riese. “How do we know that power lines aren’t pigeon recharging stations?”

Some people think Reiman is actually serious … comparing him to Aaron Rodgers, who’s been known to rock a tinfoil hat from time to time.

Texas Tech’s Tyler Owens, who’s a favorite to post the fastest 40 at this year’s NFL combine, doesn’t “believe in space,” as in “other planets,” and feels flat-earth theories have some “valid points.” pic.twitter.com/jE2jv9vyLv

But Reiman’s take wasn’t the only bizarre statement out of Indy this week — Texas Tech standout Tyler Owens also told reporters he doesn’t believe other planets exist … adding some flat-earthers have a strong argument.
