BREAKING: Elon Musk Bans Detroit Lions Players from Tesla — Amon-Ra St. Brown Says “This App Is Just Sh*t Now,” Urges NFL Fans to Delete X

Detroit, MI – In the most unexpected twist of the NFL offseason, tech billionaire Elon Musk has launched an online war with one of the league’s most beloved underdog teams: the Detroit Lions. And leading the counterattack? None other than Pro Bowl receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown.

After Musk posted a cryptic but aggressive message on the X app (formerly Twitter), declaring that Lions players are banned from using Tesla products, St. Brown fired back with a brutal takedown of Musk’s platform:

“This app? It’s just sh*t now. If you’re tired of Elon’s unfiltered mess, just delete it. Trust me, your brain will thank you.”

What Did Elon Musk Actually Say?

The controversy ignited when Musk posted the following message to his 180 million followers:

“Effective immediately: All Detroit Lions players and staff are banned from Tesla products. We support winners, not kneecap biters. #CyberTruckNotKneecapTruck 🦁🚫🔋”

The post came after a resurfaced clip of Lions head coach Dan Campbell joking that he would “rather drive a Ford truck into battle” than “a futuristic metal toaster.” Social media users tagged Elon endlessly, and it didn’t take long for Musk to clap back — hard.

Amon-Ra St. Brown Breaks the Internet

Amon-Ra, the heart and soul of Detroit’s offensive resurgence, didn’t hold back during media availability.

“So because we joked about a truck, we’re not allowed to use Teslas? That’s weak. That’s insecure billionaire energy. I’m done with this app. Delete it. This app is just… pure sh*t now.”

The clip has gone nuclear online, with over 12 million views on Instagram Reels alone and #DeleteX, #LionsVsMusk, and #StBrownSlamsElon all trending within hours.

Detroit Fans Are Not Having It

If there’s one thing Musk underestimated, it’s Detroit loyalty. Lions fans — already known for their die-hard spirit — quickly turned the online landscape into a digital battleground:

• One viral TikTok showed a Lions fan scraping the Tesla logo off his car and replacing it with a Ford badge.

• Another stitched together Campbell’s kneecap quote with Musk’s tweet and added the caption: “Elon just found out why you don’t poke Detroit.”

• A local radio station even offered free truck decals reading “Built Ford Tougher Than Elon’s Feelings.”

Even the official Ford Trucks account joined in, tweeting:

“No ban here. Lions welcome. 🛻🦁 #BuiltForDetroit”

Players, Celebs, and Athletes Join the Fight

Support came pouring in from around the sports and celebrity world:

• Jared Goff: “So now we gotta check if we’re on Elon’s naughty list before buying a car? Clown stuff.”

• Darius Slay (former Lion): “Detroit vs. Everybody — even billionaires.”

• Eminem: “We don’t ride Teslas in the D. Never have. Never will.”

• Jack Harlow: “Petty power move. Elon’s acting like he lost a fantasy league to Dan Campbell.”

Tesla Shareholders and NFL Executives Take Notice

Tesla stock dipped by 1.8% in after-hours trading following the PR fallout. Several investor groups are now raising concerns over Musk’s “emotional decision-making” and its long-term impact on brand perception.

Meanwhile, the NFL League Office issued a brief but pointed statement:

“The NFL expects professional conduct and mutual respect from all external partners. We are reviewing the situation internally.”

Behind the scenes, league sources say legal teams are examining whether banning players from commercial services could be seen as unlawful discrimination.

Musk Responds with Memes… Again

Elon, unsurprisingly, leaned into the chaos with a series of sarcastic posts:

• A meme showing Dan Campbell trying to plug a Ford F-150 into a Tesla Supercharger with the caption: “Wrong socket, buddy.”

• A photo of Amon-Ra in a “flintstone car” saying, “Future-proof.”

Needless to say, Lions fans were not amused.

Final Thoughts: Detroit vs. the Digital Tyrant

What started as a petty billionaire post has now become a cultural flashpoint. It’s not just about Teslas anymore — it’s about control, ego, and a growing rejection of platforms run by impulsive moguls.

And as for Detroit?

They’re rallying behind their star receiver, their gritty coach, and their blue-collar pride. Because in Motor City, you don’t ban the Lions — you wake the whole den.

“We don’t need Teslas,” one fan said. “We’ve got grit, gas, and Amon-Ra. That’s more horsepower than Elon’s ever had.”
