Jane Skinner Goodell on Thursday admitted to running the now-deleted Twitter account @forargument under the name ‘Jones smith’, using it to clap back at unflattering NFL coverage.

‘It was a REALLY silly thing to do and done out of frustration—and love,’ Mrs Goodell said in a statement to the Wall Street Journal, which first reported the fake account.

Screenshots and conversation threads from the deleted account show that Mrs Goodell was primarily interested in nitpicking press coverage of her husband, including the controversy over players kneeling during the national anthem.
