UFC superstar Conor McGregor likely will not be trying to play football anytime soon after his awkward pass Sunday at AT&T Stadium before the Dallas Cowboys played the Jacksonville Jaguars was mocked mightily on social media.
The pep talk appeared to go just fine. Dallas throttled Jacksonville 40-7, the most points the Cowboys have scored this NFL season. About McGregor’s pregame throw? Not so much.
McGregor’s unusual heave of the ball upward would have made even nonfans of the game cringe just a little as it was played back on CBS, which televised the game, and other social media circles.

The internet was not kind to McGregor’s throwing ability.
Watching Conor McGregor try to throw a football night be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen

After seeing @TheNotoriousMMA throw a football today… I think it’s safe to assume he’s actually right handed

Everybody hating on @TheNotoriousMMA for his throw. That was just the aftermath of a bottle of #proper12 Irish whiskey in the veins.

I can quite confidently say that I can throw a football better than Conor McGregor after watching him in Dallas ????

McGregor was not embarrassed enough to keep him from putting a portion of the throw on his own Twitter feed. The short clip there shows him making a better effort tossing a ball to a fan in the stands and later hugging Jones during the pregame hoopla. That clip has more than 448,000 views on social media.

The Cowboys appeared to have more fun with McGregor’s chest-first, arm-waving strut, as quarterback Dak Prescott and star running back Ezekiel Elliott both copied the fighter’s walk after scoring touchdowns.

McGregor seemed to enjoy himself more Sunday than at his last fight in Las Vegas on October 6, where he was beaten by undefeated Khabib Nurmagomedov in UFC 229, dropping his overall record to 21-4.
McGregor, likewise, left the Octagon to throw a punch at a Nurmagomedov team member who came at him, the sports network stated.
