As his recent feature on GQ makes perfectly clear, Jalen Ramsey doesn’t have a ton of good things to say about most NFL quarterbacks. But for some reason, the Jaguars’ star corner has an especially strong disdain for Buffalo Bills rookie Josh Allen.
Ramsey savagely trolled Allen on Twitter way back in May. He’s now taken even more shots at the young QB, but this time he got to expound more on exactly what he finds so objectionable about Allen’s game.
“I think [Buffalo Bills draft pick Josh] Allen is trash. I don't care what nobody say. He's trash. And it's gonna show too. That's a stupid draft pick to me. We play them this year, and I'm excited as hell. I hope he's their starting quarterback. He played at Wyoming. Every time they played a big school—like, they played Iowa State, which is not a big school in my opinion because I went to Florida State, and he threw five interceptions, and they lost by a couple touchdowns or something like that.
“He never beat a big school. If you look at his games against big schools, it was always hella interceptions, hella turnovers. It's like: Yo, if you're this good, why couldn't you do better? He fits that mold, he's a big, tall quarterback. Big arm, supposedly. I don't see it, personally.”
Wow. That’s about as through a teardown as anyone can hand out. Ramsey clearly doesn’t respect Allen’s game, and made some fair points in his critique of the young quarterback.
But while some people will object to Ramsey’s very public disrespect of a peer, the All-Pro can certainly back up all of his smack talk on the field when it matters.
Allen will have to earn Ramsey’s respect before the corner gives it up. The young QB will have the opportunity to do so in Week 12 when the Jaguars visit Buffalo. But if things go poorly, expect Allen to hear a lot from Ramsey about it.
