With old features behind a paywall, Twitter might no longer be the same app. In fact, even NFL stars aren't ready to pay for Elon Musk's Twitter. Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes, along with many athletes, are not looking forward to the Twitter Blue.Old verified accounts may no longer be allowed to keep their blue checkmark, and will have to pay some amount to retain their status. Apparently, subscriptions for an individual will be $8 per month along with tax for the badge.There will be added benefits for the membership like two-factor verification. Businesses who operate through Twitter will be charged more. Unverified companies will need to shell out $1000/month to maintain their gold tick with the account.Despite Musk's optimistic approach, many have criticized the upcoming changes.Five NFL stars who rejected Elon Musk's new Twitter changeFor NFL athletes, Twitter is an easy way to interact and reach fans. Sometimes, it's accessible for them to even reply to a few followers' comments. However, the new update might restrict their approach and reach on the app.Here are the five notable players, who are unlikely to pay to retain their blue tick on the Twitter. #5 Michael Thomas' not interested in the blue tickNew Orleans Saints WR Michael Thomas wasn't personally interested in the new blue check. Thomas laughed at the new change, seeming unaffected by the upcoming payments.Michael Thomas@CantguardmikeDon’t nobody want that raggedy blue check no way anymore 983107Don’t nobody want that raggedy blue check no way anymore 😂"Don’t nobody want that raggedy blue check no way anymore," Thomas added.#4 Dairus SlayPhiladelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay tweeted something similar, telling Twitter that they can happily take away his blue check. Of course, Slay was concerned over fans tagging the wrong name after a game.Darius Slay@bigplay24slayThey can have my blue check fans might tag the wrong name now when someone catch a ball on me!!11664474They can have my blue check 😂😂 fans might tag the wrong name now when someone catch a ball on me!!😂"They can have my blue check 😂😂 fans might tag the wrong name now when someone catch a ball on me!!😂," Slay wrote.#3 Micah ParsonsDallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons, who is also fairly active on Twitter, clearly stated that he was going to make some troll accounts. Considering there will be multiple blue tick accounts, it might be easier for haters (and fans) to impersonate their favorite celebrity.Micah Parsons@MicahhParsons11Yoo I’m not paying for a blue check ima start making troll accounts now!!

He assured fans that it would still be him, but there might also be more accounts.Lane Johnson@LaneJohnson65If/when I lose my blue verification checkmark this weekend, just know it's still me!
