Not sure and don't care about her weight, but from that article in ESPN, the reporter is a dirty liar who made things up.
From the ESPN article:
"that morning, a columnist from the Oklahoman, Jenni Carlson, wrote that Reid was benched for being soft, for not playing through injuries, for being coddled by his mom. And, to prove her point, Carlson wrote Rajika had fed her son chicken after the Troy game.
In a lot of ways, it was a cheap shot -- because Rajika had fed no one but herself and because Carlson hadn't even been at the Troy game.
Generally, when you say things that are not true, that's a lie, something that most reporters are quite familiar with, as they do that all the time.
It's not "inappropriate", it's a dirty lie, that was created to embellish an otherwise pretty boring story about why an often injured player wasn't playing. ZZZZ. But a player who's so soft that his mommy feeds him fried chicken, now that's a story!
What Gundy didn't like, understandably, was a newspaper article that made personal insults against the toughness of one of his players, with a straight up lie to embellish it. Good for him for standing up for his player.
