Apparently, being transgender in the woke NFL is not the attention-getter some hoped it would be.
Justine Lindsay, the first trans NFL cheerleader, will not be returning for a fourth season, Total Pro Sports reported.
Lindsay, who is about to turn 33, joined the Carolina TopCats cheer squad in 2022, but announced recently that he’s no longer on the roster after being crowned the 2025 Ms. Charlotte Black Pride Lady Winner.
“For now, I’m focusing on my pageantry work and community involvement, striving to be recognized not just as an NFL cheerleader, but as someone making a positive impact, especially during these uncertain times,” Lindsay said, according to Out Sports.

As might be expected, he took a shot at President Donald J. Trump while talking about helping the “younger generation.”
“Being in the NFL was a stepping stone to get me where I need to be, and God is blessing me each and everyday giving me the breath to do the work and change lives. My focus is to educate and uplift the younger generation of leaders to focus on their dreams and goals,” Lindsay said. “Don’t let a president who is delusional stop them from reaching their goals whether they are trans, African American, not American, etc.”
As for Commissioner Roger Goodell’s NFL, the trend this year features male cheerleaders:

Make that flamboyant, effeminate men who may identify as male, even if their actions suggest otherwise:

Male cheerleaders are fit based and stunts, not to wave pom poms and dance around. Now the Patriots have a male cheerleader taking away a position from a woman. pic.twitter.com/F01AkZMZj1

Are we supposed to simultaneously believe that this guy can cheer and that he’s a woman? Maybe he needs to move to Minnesota.

HE needs to stay away from the younger generation.
