Jalen Ramsey says Joe Flacco ‘sucks,’ Josh Allen is trash

The king of NFL trash talk is at it again. 

Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey blasted Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco and Buffalo Bills rookie Josh Allen in a new GQ article. 

Ramsey was defending Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, who fell to No. 32 in this year’s NFL draft. The All-Pro cornerback argued that Jackson should have gone earlier in the draft.

Here’s what Ramsey said about Flacco in full: 

I would’ve picked [Lamar Jackson] earlier than 32. I think he’s gonna do a good job. Especially with the [Baltimore Ravens’] offensive coordinator — he likes running quarterbacks, likes that read option. And just being honest about it, [Joe] Flacco sucks. I played him two years in a row. He sucks.

And Allen: 

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.

Ramsey has been in the league for two seasons and has emerged as one of the best corners in the NFL. He has also repeatedly gotten under his opponents’ skin with his trash talk. 

Last year, Ramsey got into a fight with the Bengals’ A.J. Green after he kept telling the wide receiver he was soft. 

Ramsey did have some positive thoughts about some of the other quarterbacks in the league, including former Washington Redskins quarterback Kirk Cousins: 

I think he’s good. I think he’s a winner. He’s a hell of a competitor. Coming off the play action, he’s the best quarterback in the league. Play action passing, he’s a hell of a quarterback. 

The 23-year-old did not give his thoughts about Alex Smith, but the Jaguars do play the Redskins on Dec. 16.
