Calls Out Nike Protesters

EXCLUSIVE

Lil Rel Howery has a question for all the people boycotting Nike over the Colin Kaepernick ad — where were you during the Nike sweatshop scandals?!?!

The funnyman — and star of “Rel” — tells TMZ Sports he thinks it’s “crazy” that people are wasting their money by burning Nike products … and finds it interesting that CK was the issue to set them off. 

“They didn’t burn they stuff when they said Nike was using sweatshops,” Rel said. 

Background … Nike has been accused of using sweatshops since the ’90s — but began auditing its factories in 2002.  

But, Rel says he’s a BIG fan of Nike’s new ad campaign with Kaep — “I think it’s a dope promotion man. Nike’s doing a good job of not just dealing with athletes, just dope people.”

“I want a Nike deal!”
