ESPN analyst Ryan Clark has left his colleagues in hysterics during Friday’s edition of First Take.
The former NFL star, 44, dropped a bizarre metaphor that had host Molly Qerim cackling with laughter.
Clark joined Stephen A. Smith and Bart Scott for Friday’s episode of the sports debate show.
Dialing in from his home via video link, the former Super Bowl champion joined in a debate about the Buffalo Bills.
Clark was adamant that the Bills didn’t need to like each other as individuals to succeed as a team – a point Smith disagreed with.
He also asserted that the Bills are a different team in Week 8 than they were in Week 1 of the season.

To try and hammer home his point, the former Pittsburgh Steelers star dropped a statement completely out of left field to leave his colleagues floored.
Clark said: “I loved who the Buffalo Bills were at the beginning of the season.
“I hate who they are now. It’s like getting into a relationship with somebody, they show you all the great things they are.
“And then they got comfortable. Now they’re sitting on your sofa, scratchin’ their booty, and farting.”

Off camera, host Molly could be heard bursting into laughter.
Stephen A. deadpanned back: “Scratching their booty and farting? That’s a new one.”
Still giggling, Qerim added: “RC, I needed a good laugh like that. I appreciated that.”
Fans were quick to comment on social media about Clark’s bizarre comparison.
One wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter: “Ryan Clark was crazy on the field but he might be crazier off the field.”
Another laughed: “Ryan Clark is so corny.”
While a third countered: “Ryan Clark. Great analyst though jokes don’t be hitting at all.”
It’s been a busy week on First Take, with Molly stealing the show with her outfit on Thursday’s show.
