Deebo Samuel, the wide receiver for the San Francisco 49ers, had made remarks against James Bradberry, the cornerback for the Philadelphia Eagles. Samuel called Bradberry “trash," and once again he expressed that he stood by what he said.
According to Pro Football Talk via Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia, Bradberry was also asked what he thought of Samuel’s remarks; however, he dodged the reporters effortlessly and said, "Of course, I don’t necessarily like what he said,"
"I wish he would have used a better word to describe my play, but it is what it is. At the end of the day, all I can do is control my work ethic and what I do day to day."
He further shared, "You would have to ask him,"
"From the clips that I saw, they felt like they had a good game plan against us. They felt like they had some open routes against us. Yeah, I don’t know. You’ve got to ask him."
The Second-team All-Pro of 2022, Bradberry further expressed, "You know what? I’ve been playing football since I was 8,"
"I’m 30 now, so I’ve been playing roughly 22 years of my life. I’ve had people say negative things about me in the past."

"When I was coming out of high school, people said I couldn’t do it. When I was in college, I was transferring, [and] people said I couldn’t play corner because I was playing safety originally. And then coming into the league, people said I couldn’t do certain things."
"I got drafted in the second round. It’s my eighth year in the league. So, really, negative comments don’t really bother me like that. I try not to let it get to me. I just try to control my work ethic and lining up on Sunday and whatever cards I have, I’m going to play them. And let the product speak for itself."
The Philadelphia Eagles, 10-1 will next face the San Francisco 49ers, 8-3 in their upcoming match.
