Whether it’s jealousy or envy, we will never know, but the Buffalo Bills are not feeling Odell Beckham Jr.
Just days after losing to the Giants, Bills players are still steaming at the fact that Madden cover boy got away with throwing multiple hooks during Sunday's game.
Bills players described as a “prima donna” and a “golden boy” who acted like a potty little brother, according to Tyler Dunne of The Buffalo News.
“He’s different. It’s kind of like you’re playing your little brother and he gets mad at you for being too physical with him – throwing a tantrum,” Bills cornerback Stephon Gilmore said of Beckham. “I’m like, ‘Man, we’re playing football. It’s a physical game.’ … He’s a prima donna. He feels like he’s on top of the world and nobody’s supposed to do anything to him.”
“That’s what he does. He’ll get away with it,” Preston Brown said. “He’s the ‘golden boy’ of the league. He’s on the cover of Madden. Sometimes, you get away with stuff like that.”
Beckham caught five passes for 38 yards, and Gilmore said he wasn’t particularly impressed.
“I don’t really watch TV and listen to the hype. I study guys on the film and then I judge him. He’s not Sammy Watkins. He has good hands, he can catch. He’s good but he’s not what people think after that one catch.”
Too bad they’re not in the same division or conference.
