Peter King reported on “Football Night in America” Sunday that Obama reached out to team president Jeffrey Lurie recently to applaud the owner for taking a chance on a convicted felon. According to King, the president noted that “a level playing field rarely exists for prisoners who have completed their sentences.”
Rick Chandler, however, he doesn't like second chances.
