Declaring your son will never play football in a room full of fans before your big performance at the Super Bowl might not be tamil sex mms videothe smoothest move but, here we are, witnessing another day in the life of Justin Timberlake.

The singer, who is not releasing a country album this week, made the bold proclamation during a press conference ahead of the Super Bowl on Thursday. A reporter asked Timberlake if he would support his two-year-old son Silas, his son with actress Jessica Biel, to pursue a career in music down the road.

"I'd rather not think about it because he's about to turn three," Timberlake joked. "He did come to rehearsals yesterday and I was shocked at how quickly he could cover 100 yards. Speed runs in our family," he joked.

The reporter followed up with Timberlake and asked if he would support Silas if a future career in the NFL panned out.

"Uh, he will never play football," Timberlake said, before backtracking a bit.

"It's kind of like that thing where my main objective is that he become a great person," he explained. "And if he wants to get into the arts or sports, then I would fully support that. I think I can hopefully offer him some advice on what to do and what not to do. Right now, we're working on our manners. That's the big deal in our house. One thing at a time."

While Timberlake may have been joking, there are plenty of reasons why he wouldn't want his son playing on a football field—one being Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, or CTE. The illness has been linked to memory loss and even death—and it's one football players are prone too because of the laborious and dangerous nature of the game.

Or, maybe it's just because Timberlake is more of a basketball fan.
