How to use covering in a sentence?

  1. Cassius Marsh:

    They asked me to do a bunch of stuff that I had never done: covering running backs and receivers and basically almost never rushing the passer, which is what I did in playing defensive line, they don’t have fun there.

It made me for the first time in my life think about not playing football because I hated it that much.

    Immediately after the media correctly criticized Roseanne Barr for a racist statement, Samantha Bee tries to outdo her by calling Ivanka Trump the' C' word. Imagine if a conservative did this to Chelsea Clinton or to the Obama daughters. We'd never hear the end of it, today media are freaking out about an incorrect [ President ] Ivanka Trump tweet saying ABC never apologized for Brian Ross's incompetent reporting that tanked the stock market, Ivanka Trump said. They aren't covering Samantha Bee at all. They would rather protect a discredited journalist than address the insane and hateful comments that come from one of their favorite TV people.ABC set the media-approved standard this week for misbehavior. When someone does something this disgusting, their show is canceled.
