Jaguars' Ramsey critical of NFL QBs
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Jalen Ramsey is making headlines from his couch.
Three days after being suspended for screaming obscenities at reporters, the Jacksonville Jaguars All-Pro cornerback is criticizing several NFL quarterbacks — and praising a few.
In an interview with GQ magazine , Ramsey called Buffalo Bills rookie Josh Allen “trash” and said Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan was “overrated” and a product of Kyle Shanahan's offensive system.
Baltimore's Joe Flacco, Indianapolis' Andrew Luck and Eli Manning of the New York Giants also got less-than-stellar reviews. Ramsey called Pittsburgh's Ben Roethlisberger “decent at best.”
Ramsey also predicted that Houston's Deshaun Watson and Philadelphia's Carson Wentz would be NFL MVPs down the road. He said Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff was “average to above average” and called Kirk Cousins “a winner.”
Ramsey weighed in on two dozen quarterbacks in all. The harshest comments were directed toward Ryan and Allen, the seventh overall draft pick. Buffalo and Jacksonville play in late November.
“I think Allen is trash,” Ramsey said. “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 ... I hope he's their starting quarterback.”
