Eagles fans have a reputation for berating opposing players from warmups through the final whistle. Their best insults are reserved for players on rival teams, especially those they believe they can shake up.
That's what makes Odell Beckham Jr. the perfect target for Philly's wrath.
Ahead of the Giants‘ showdown with the Eagles on Thursday night, Beckham spoke with ESPN's Tim McManus about the diverse variety of trash talk that's rained down on him in Philadelphia.
From McManus:
“I've been called anything in the book over there when you're down in Philly,” he said Tuesday. “You just embrace it. It's great. They don't want to see you win. There's nothing wrong with that. But just some of the stuff that was said, it's pretty crazy. But at the end of the day, man, it's all noise. It's just words, it's just talk. Not going to make or break who you are. But it is a pretty ruthless place down there.”
With a victory, the Giants will clinch a playoff spot. It would be Odell's first career win in Philly.
