No reason to not believe what Bradshaw is saying. Here is his explanation for his on air gaffe.

“I’m so sorry if I hurt anybody and I’m shocked I’m in this position.
Bradshaw said the comment was just part of a running joke Sunday that Johnson’s “big thing is chicken, Kentucky Fried Chicken. He won’t share it with anybody.”
Jimmie Johnson backs us the story.
For all those "chicken" comments..TB kids ME about how much I like chicken.. He was referring to me!

Like I said on Twitter it was just a bad analogy at the wrong time with the wrong player. He apologized and there is nothing more that should be said.
We all make mistakes, Bradshaw’s mistake in my opinion wasn’t malicious or racist.
