Former NFL head coach and current Monday Night Football commentator Jon Gruden appeared on ESPN's Mike & Mike Wednesday morning and said that Odell Beckham Jr. should be benched. Per TheBigLead:

quote:
“He’s not playing great football. He’s got no touchdowns. Zero.

***

He quit on a route that the ball was intercepted on. I don’t want to see anymore one-handed catches, honestly. He’s not playing up to his standards. You know, how much are you gonna tolerate? I think that’s the question that Ben McAdoo, the coach of the Giants is faced with.

***

Like I said, he’s dropping passes. I’ve taken guys out of the game for that. I think that’s what needs to be done. Sit him down for awhile. I know he’s a great player. But I’ve taken guys down for dropping passes, lining up wrong, missing an audible, blowing an assignment, committing penalties, not being reliable.

ODB does need to calm the frick down but benching him is a fricking stupid idea. Jon Gruden also acts like there are 25 hall of famers playing in every Monday night game. He speaks in hyperbole virtually all the time.

Eli manning was scared to pass the whole game. Nervous in the pocket. Don't understand why everyone is piling on Odell.

Easy to pile on him. He throws a tantrum like a kindergartener every game now.

Gruden doesn't like divas. ODB needs to get his shite together.
