NASCAR star Tyler Reddick has broken his silence over the internet’s reaction to Michael Jordan celebrating with his six-year-old son following the huge win at the Daytona 500.The basketball legend, who co-owns NASCAR team 23XI Racing, was seen to be making repeated pinch motions towards the back of Beau Reddick’s T-shirt as it appeared wet on Sunday (15 February).Jordan then grazes his fingers over the back of the boy’s legs, with no indication of wrongdoing amid some backlash on social media.After winning ‘The Great American Race’ alongside Jordan in Florida, Reddick said there was nothing in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“From my perspective, I’ve gotten to know Michael and his family very well over the years I’ve been here with 23XI, and I don’t see what other people see when it comes to this,” he said on Stephen A. Smith’s Sirius XM radio show.”For me, it’s a huge moment; this is the biggest moment of my career. It’s a huge moment for my family and for his family.”And I just put that off to the side and think about the look on (Michael Jordan’s wife) Yvette’s face and the whole family and his whole group when they got to victory lane too, and just how happy everybody was celebrating together.”So, that’s where I’m at with it.”TMZ also asked Reddick’s representatives about the incident, and they were quick to shut it down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
