The Giants lost their third straight game on Sunday night—and after the contest was over, New York tackle Ereck Flowers was not happy with an ESPN reporter.
According to NJ.com, Flowers was standing in front of his locker following the Giants’ 23-16 loss to the Packers when ESPN reporter Jordan Raanan approached him and attempted to listen to him answer a question from another reporter. But when Flowers saw Raanan coming, he stopped talking and let it be known that he didn’t want the reporter anywhere near him. Flowers then reportedly shoved Raanan as the two had a brief but tense encounter.
"Get out of my face, man. Don’t come over here," Flowers told Raanan, before adding, "You hear me?" when Raanan didn’t budge.
"I’m just trying to do my job," Raanan responded.
"Go over there," Flowers said.
"I’m just trying to do my job," Raanan said again.
"Get the fuck out of my face, bro," Flowers said, before Raanan told him he was just trying to do his job for a third time.
Raanan didn’t respond to NJ.com’s request for comment, but he did downplay what took place on Twitter:
It’s unclear why Flowers was so upset with Raanan, but Raanan was critical of Flowers at several points during the game on Sunday night so that could be one of the reasons:
The good news for the Giants is that Odell Beckham Jr. was on his best behavior on Sunday night and didn't push anyone. He even made up with the kicking net that he hit a couple weeks ago:
But the Giants continue to make headlines for all the wrong reasons so far this season.
