A running list of everything NFL conspiracy theorist William Hayes does and does not believe in – SB Nation

Miami Dolphins defensive end William Hayes is one of the more interesting players in the NFL, and its not because he was traded for a stapler and a coffee machine. Its because of his beliefs, like that dinosaurs never existed.

What he does and does not find to be true are typically the meat of questions he receives from the media. It was the main topic of conversation between him and reporters during Dolphins OTAs, where he let us in his mind even more.

Because he receives so many questions that reveal things he believes (or doesnt) were keeping track of those things.

On Thursday afternoon, Hayes said, I dont believe a T-rex ever walked this Earth. It was the same tone he delivered in 2015.

When he was asked how he would explain his theory on dinosaurs, he told reporters, I just think we just put those things there just so we can have some shit to talk about, you know what I mean?

Hayes claims he did do a lot of research on dinosaurs in the past, but as he grew older it became ridiculous to him. It made me definitely not believe in it.

Jimmy Kimmel tried to prove dinosaurs were real to Hayes, but it didnt quite pan out.

Jimmy Kimmel done took me to a dinosaur museum, had other people take me to dinosaur museums and every time I went there it just made me just realize how ridiculous theories seem even more.

At least he (and others) made an effort to prove their existence.

In December of 2015, his then-Rams teammate Chris Long told ESPN, He does not believe that dinosaurs ever existed and he thinks that mermaids are real. I love dinosaurs, so we have a big point of contention.

When Hayes was still with the Rams, a mermaid showed up to the teams practice.

On Thursday, he gave a little clarification.

Im not saying theres necessarily a mermaid out there, Im just saying there possibly could be. Its a lot we havent discovered yet. We find different life form in the water every day.

He also told Jimmy Kimmel that he would have sex with a mermaid, but thats another story.

A new revelation on Thursday was that Hayes doesnt think the United States ever landed on the moon. I just dont think man went to the moon. I dont think weve been back there after we went have we?

He was shocked that we had gone up to the moon on multiple occasions. It led him to ask, And we just went up there and chilled? I dont know about all that.

Hayes just isnt buying it. He felt the same about the moon landing as he did about dinosaurs: its just something to talk about. Hes also confident he can convince his head coach of the same.

If [Adam] Gase just hear me out one time hell probably feel where Im coming from.

Hayes didnt clarify if he thinks Neil Armstrongs one small step for man was filmed on a soundstage. Either way, he doesnt think it happened.

Even though Hayes is a skeptic, he also is optimistic, like thinking there are other life forms out in the universe.

Im just thinking they could possibly be somewhere else. I mean, some other type of life form, he said. Im not saying a human or a legit alien with two little things coming out his head. Im just thinking like there could be another life form.

A reporter asked him about the colonization of Mars and if hed like to visit. Of course, Hayes was all for it.

That sounds pretty dope man, I wouldnt mind taking a trip to Mars and see how it looks up there.

Listening to Hayes discuss what he thinks about certain things in the world is fun to listen to. Hopefully were fortunate enough that he keeps sharing what he believes in with us.
