Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. has fired back at Colin Cowherd.
Cowherd had an epic rant against Beckham and the Cleveland Browns during the May 16 episode of “The Herd with Colin Cowherd” on FOX Sports.
When he referred to Beckham, Cowherd said, “Most of his career now is The Catch and a bunch of nonsense.” The FOX Sports talk show host also had an analogy of the New England Patriots and Browns.
He said the Patriots wrote the book “How to Win Super Bowls.” He added it's a “hardcover” and “best seller.”
On the other hand, Cowherd said, “Cleveland is just a flashy brochure full of chatter and talk.”
"This is what wore the New York Giants out… The injuries, the net, the boat. Most of his career now is The Catch and a bunch of nonsense."@ColinCowherd on OBJ leaving Browns OTAs pic.twitter.com/idsjMLicl1

Beckham didn't let Cowherd's comments slide. He went on an epic Twitter rant of his own on Thursday.

In Beckham's opinion, Cowherd used his name to garner attention and boost the show's ratings. Will the two eventually patch things up? We don't know for sure.
This isn't the first time the controversial wide receiver has earned the ire of a media personality. On April 23, ESPN Cleveland's Tony Grossi wrote an open letter to Beckham questioning his commitment to the Browns. Back then, Beckham was a no-show at Cleveland's voluntary minicamp.
Beckham fired back. He posted a video on Instagram, which shows him training at the beach.

Beckham's been with the Browns for only two months. The media circus has been all over him. It's safe to say this will continue.
Can Beckham shut them up with his performance on the field this year? You can be sure it's one of his goals for the 2019 NFL season.
