NBC was called out after removing a NFL star’s profession of his Christian faith from a postgame interview posted to social media.

On Saturday, the Houston Texans walloped the Cleveland Browns during the wild card round of the playoffs.

Following the game, Texans’ rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud was approached for a live interview by NBC Sports reporter Kathryn Tappen.

“C.J., your first playoff game and your first NFL season and a record-setting performance for you. What does this moment mean?” Tappen asked.

NBC edited out Houston QB CJ Stroud's praise of Jesus Christ in their post-game interview posted to X.

“First and foremost, I just want to give all glory and praise to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ,” Stroud responded.

He went on to express appreciation for the city of Houston and Texans fans who have cheered him on.

A short time later, the network posted a clip of the interview on social media, but users noticed it had been edited to remove Stroud’s comment about Jesus.

“CJ Stroud has a lot of love for his city,” read the caption written by staff at Sunday Night Football on NBC.

Backlash against the edit has been stiff, with virtually every popular reply to the post blasting NBC for censoring Stroud.

“He’s got a lot of love for Jesus Christ too, but you edited that out for some reason. Why?” one user wrote.

“Why cut out the part where he thanked God? Maybe that’s why no one trusts mainstream media anymore…” another user replied.

NBC has not addressed the controversy at the time of this writing.
