Tim Walz allegedly had an active hand in convincing a high school football player dealing with alcohol abuse to keep playing football, according to The Ringer.
Former Mankato West linebacker Dan Clement told The Ringer that he began to experiment with alcohol when he was in high school. Then, the summer between his junior and senior year, Clement said he was arrested multiple times for underage drinking. Clement had a suspension from football to begin his final high school season and said he decided "I’m just not going to play at all." Jackson Thompson is a sports writer for Fox News Digital. He previously worked for ESPN and Business Insider. Jackson has covered the Super Bowl and NBA Finals, and has interviewed iconic figures Usain Bolt, Rob Gronkowski, Jerry Rice, Troy Aikman, Mike Trout, David Ortiz and Roger Clemens.
But Clement said Walz repeatedly approached him in the hallways that year and told the teenager, "We need you."
"He knew I was struggling," Clement told the outlet, adding that Walz told him, "I don’t care about that other stuff."
