Pure chaos ensued when famous comedians Tom Segura and Bert Kreischer interrupted Friday's interview with Houston Texans quarterbacks CJ Stroud and Pat McAfee.
Stroud, who had just won the NFL's Offensive Rookie of the Year award, watched on with mild amusement as the comedy duo stormed into McAfee's Radio Row studio.
McAfee cheerfully introduced the two to Stroud, saying, “These are two funny white guys.''
Stroud threw his punches well and jokingly promoted his sponsor C4 energy drink, but Kreischer insisted the QB drink tequila.
Stroud refused, claiming he doesn't drink.
Mr. Segura then offered Mr. McAfee a recovery drink. When McAfee asked him what it was about, he said, “We're collecting blood and bone marrow from migrants at the border.”
This is a hilariously inappropriate joke to tell while standing right next to one of the NFL brand's next big faces, and I loved every second of it.
Stroud shook it off, seizing the opportunity to focus on his promotion, and began chanting “C4, C4” to drown out the dry comedy going on behind him.

So Kreischer convinced McAfee's co-hosts, including former NFL stud linebacker AJ Hawk, to drink tequila with McAfee.
Kreischer, a comedian known for taking his shirt off and drinking heavily, took off his clothes and challenged himself to a push-up competition.
“How many push-ups do you think you can do now?” Kreischer asked.
Stroud replied, “3.5 points was good.”

When McAfee asked what a good over-under was, Kreischer said 40. He then dropped down and did some push-up variations, but Stroud pointed out, “You've got to rock out. You've got to rock out.” This is not a push-up. ” (Related: Former Vikings head coach Mike Zimmer reportedly rejoins Cowboys in heartwarming full-circle moment)
But Kreischer managed to complete more than 40 attempts at any half-assed push-up variation.

Afterward, Segura laughed and apologized to Stroud, saying, “Sorry for messing up your corner, CJ. Nice to meet you.” I'll be C4 for the rest of my life. ”
Stroud laughed about the matchup and criticized Kreischer's tone.
“Oh, he didn't do anything. He didn't even get extended. You know, at the combine you get pressed out. That doesn't count,” said the NFL player.
This encounter was a lot of fun and definitely made me laugh, especially the part about immigrant blood. Roger Goodell was probably pissed when he heard that.
