Bryant responds to Stephen A Smith: Don't judge me


by - Assoc. Editor -

Former Clemson standout Martavis Bryant was suspended the entire 2016 NFL season for his second violation of the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse.

However, that will not stop Bryant from working in the community in Henderson, Nevada as he will be volunteering and coaching wide receivers at a local high school.

ESPN analyst Stephen A. Smith was critical of Bryant working with kids and took the following jab on his First Take show.

"You gonna be around kids," Smith said. "What the hell you gonna teach them? How to puff and pass? I don't wanna hear that."

Bryant responded with various tweets directed towards Smith's comments.

"One thing about me is I never cared about people who judge me based off my mistakes," Bryant tweeted. "Especially someone who judges you and bash you every chance they get even when you are making life changes I have no respect for that dude. This is coming from someone who never put on a helmet ...:.. We will see who gets the last laugh it ain't over!"

Smith responded with the following comeback for Bryant.

"My man @ThaBestUNO, don't come at me like I'm AGAINST you," Smith tweeted. "I am FOR you. But you messed up. And you may cost you team. Period!"

Bryant and Smith continued their verbal fight with another Twitter exchange.

"Don't judge someone if you don't know nothing about them facts," Bryant tweeted.

"You really want me to spit out the facts bro," Smith tweeted. "Really? You and I both know you DO NOT WANT THAT. Just get better bro @FirstTake"

In two NFL seasons (21 games), Bryant has 76 catches for 1,314 yards and 14 scores.

The Steelers drafted Bryant in the 4th round, (118th overall) in the 2014 NFL Draft after a Clemson career where he had 61 receptions and 13 touchdowns.
