ESPN asks Odell controversial questions
Odell answers questions
ESPN ridicules Odell for answering the questions honestly

Media logic

[derrickjones]

People forgetting Odell never even thought about holding out when he didn’t get his contract. He showed up early to training camp. Stayed after to get extra reps with Eli. This kid is a team first guy. He just wants to win and wants everyone to have that mindset. Giants have a top 10 team on paper but they’re a bottom 10 team because these dudes are so accustomed to losing and aren’t matching his work ethic. Media want Odell to be PC but that shit doesn’t win you football games. He called the team out and they played their best game of the season.

The media wants athletes to keep it real until they keep it real.

Literally last week aaron rodgers went in on his offense 🤔🤨

[DCL]

So Odell gets paid, y’all say he needs to be a leader and take charge, now that he’s done that and he’s stepping up and holding people accountable; y’all mad at him? The only reason this is an issue is because it’s Eli Manning, had it been Davis Webb or Geno Smith nobody would bat an eye. How dare you call out a Manning on their short comings??

Why are the media trying to always make Odell look bad

[pauldelaguila]

Am I the only person who though will low key took shots at Molly at 2:00? "this is why you sit there and not there" lol

[ahmedny]

Yall want him to be a leader ? Now he is selfish ? He didn’t say anything bad about his teammates. He just “WE” need to play with heart. Key word “we” not “they”.

Never forget: Max once said it was the college's fault that LeAngelo robbed a store. Sometimes you can't fix stupid

[randomrandom]

odell is still a top 3 receiver.. the most talented. the giants better draft a QB and the fix the damn O-Line

[jayburton]

Oh it's ok when Aaron Rogers Says that his offense played like trash he want to win he passionate SAS is a Puppet of the highest order and doesnt realize it

[anthonybryant]

Will Cain face @ 1:06 like "you of all mfs saying this!?" 😂😂😂

[CaliTheTravelingGamer]

Odell had the right to say wat he said! Odell is a great player on the field he the best player on the team🔥🤘💯

[guapedup]

Julio is just a rare breed when It comes to superstar Widereceivers in this day and age. Julio haven't scored a touchdown all year, team losing like shit and you never hear him talking down on his team when it's clear as day he isn't no where near the problem.

Stephen A: Odell Beckham Jr. shouldn't tell the truth, even though he didn't name names. Imagine if his teammates told the truth about him!
