Some Twitter users linked the athlete’s pass to that of Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield; having Odell Beckham Jr. in Wide Open, while others compared the action to that of various NFL quarterbacks. Even the GOAT of professional basketball Shaq couldn’t resist sharing his reply.

Some Twitter users defended the Browns QB, claiming that he is not on social media because of such events. He prefers to mind his own business.

Shaquille O’Neal, the former legendary center turned NBA Analyst couldn’t help but share the video with his reaction through his show, Shaqtin’ a Fool’s official media page.

Did DeAndre Jordan say something?

DeAndre Jordan has made no public comments on the current comparisons between him and Mayfield on social media. It was probably a relevant comparison, but the Lakers’ big man chose to not acknowledge it with a response.

The relationship between OBJ and Mayfield started turning sour in 2019 when Mayfield wasn’t targeting him, despite Odell being wide open. This sparked a conversation between the two players, and they did their best to improve their relationship by throwing practices and spending time together.

Despite their best efforts, Odell Jr. and Baker could not make things work. This eventually tensed their relationship, which further affected their on-field chemistry. After a while, OBJ made an abrupt exit from the Cleveland Browns, and LA Rams took him in for the rest of the 2021 season. Playing with the Rams, he won his first Super Bowl ring.
