"Disappointing to see counter protests against racism especially from a place I attended and called home," Daylon Mack tweeted. "Embarrassing. We have to do better."
Both Mack and Mond retweeted a change.org petition for the removal of the statue, as did current players Buddy Johnson and Jayden Peevy. Otaro Alaka, Jace Sternberger and Armani Watts -- former A&M standouts now playing in the NFL -- also tweeted the petition and spoke out against the statue on Twitter.
