When questioned about the bet on ‘All Facts No Brakes with Keyshawn Johnson,’ Daniels initially played coy, jokingly remarking, “Man, he [Nabers] wasn’t supposed to tell nobody. We got a little something going on.” However, he eventually confirmed the wager’s $10,000 value.
Emphasizing that the bet is merely a friendly competition between friends, Daniels clarified that it’s all in good fun and devoid of any questionable motives. Nevertheless, there’s speculation about how the NFL might perceive such a wager.
