Praying high school football coach Joe Kennedy has now resigned his coaching position after only one game back in the field.
“I knew it wasn’t going to be a picnic and it wasn’t,” he said, insisting that his “role and responsibilities” during last Friday’s game were “not what I signed up for.”
He blasted the school in his resignation letter and accused district officials of retaliating against him upon his return. “It is apparent that the reinstatement ordered by the Supreme Court will not be fully followed after a series of actions meant to diminish my role and single me out in what I can only believe is retaliation by the school district,” he said in his letter.
The resignation comes only days after his team’s first game of the season, after which he performed his 50-yard line prayer, writing on Facebook, “That’s another W! After an 8 year legal battle culminating in a win at the Supreme Court, I returned to Bremerton High School as an Assistant Coach last night and prayed at midfield, exercising my Constitutional Right. Happy to say we fought the good fight and finished the race. ,” he posted.
“As I have demonstrated, we must make a stand for what we believe in. In my case, I made a stand to take a knee. I encourage all Americans to make their own stand for freedom and our right to express our faith as we see fit. I appreciate the people of Bremerton, the coaches, staff and especially the students and wish them all well. Bremerton will always be home,” Kennedy added.Kennedy has already moved back to Pensacola, Florida, where he and his wife moved after he was fired in 2015.
