The ex-wife of Los Angeles Chargers star Rashawn Slater, Stᴀssney Brown, has blasted NFL reporter Dov Kleiman over his ‘deplorable’ comment about the couple’s recent divorce. 

Brown and Slater have gone their separate ways, with the split being publicized at the same time the offensive lineman’s new contract was signed. 

The 26-year-old is reportedly set to sign a four-year, $114 million contract extension that includes a record $92 million guaranteed. The deal is set to make Slater the highest-paid offensive lineman in NFL history.

Kleiman mostly reported the facts, with the divorce caveat before finishing his social media message – ‘talk about good timing.’  

Brown has retorted to Kleiman, defending her ex-husband despite no longer being together.

‘This is deplorable. I hold nothing but support for Rashawn,’ Brown said on X. ‘His contract is not about me. I think we should focus on what’s most important here, and that is his career and his success. Please stop including me in this narrative. He deserves his moment.’

Kleiman responded quickly to Brown’s claim, with details of the timeline for the divorce not being publicized alongside his comments. 

‘It wasn’t about you. It was about Rashawn keeping the money that he worked hard for. I didn’t mention your name. So you decide to draw more attention to yourself? But also claiming he deserves his moment,’ Kleiman said. 

NFL fans have blasted Kleiman for his comments, saying he is ‘gaslighting’ Brown and others by stating his intentions, yet including her pH๏τo in multiple messages about Slater.  

The Chargers and Slater’s representatives, CAA Football, have reportedly been hammering out the deal for weeks. 

Slater was set to enter the final year on his current contract but is now tied to Los Angeles until 2029. 

Selected by the Chargers with the 13th overall pick in 2021, Slater has already earned two Pro-Bowl nods over his four-year NFL career. 

He was limited to three games in 2022 because of a ruptured biceps, but has otherwise been a permanent fixture on the Bolts’ offensive line.
