Baker Mayfield Comes to Odell Beckham's Defense and Blasts Colin Cowherd on Twitter
It seems like Colin Cowherd messed with the wrong guys. In his recent edition of The Herd, Cowherd called out Odell Beckham Jr., naming nine of his top-10 most memorable moments as off-the-field controversies, which was clearly a direct shot at the veteran wideout.
Let's just say that Odell wasn't very happy and he made that clear on Twitter.
Next time I have media, ima make sure I put an end to all of this. Just don’t be putting shxt out on social media u WOULD NOT say to my face or in person ... u really scary?? https://t.co/410xdI8ua6

To make matters worse for Cowherd, new teammate and Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield did what he does best and fired back at the FOX Sports personality, which is something he's all too familiar with at this point. He came to the defense of Beckham and blasted Cowherd yet again.
Once again, you’re a clown.... now I know you’re just trying to get me fired up. “Most memorable moments”... he’s 26 and his greatest moments are ahead of him. You forget the kids and people he inspires. That goes much further than football...

While Cowherd got buried by these two, it's important to note that he got exactly what he wanted -- a ton of exposure.
He responded to these two in a pretty funny way as well:
Just woke up from a wonderful nap and two of my favorite guys @bakermayfield and @obj are throwing ? at me. Telling me nobody likes me and stuff. Hurtful. Especially after all the love I gave both. Sometimes it’s hard being the most beloved media icon in America. Whatevs. ?

Most people that aren't Cowherd would advise highly against calling out OBJ and Baker because they've never been afraid to retaliate and speak their mind.
Nonetheless, these guys can shut Cowherd up for good if they can produce on the field in a big way next season.
