The outspoken Super Bowl Winner Warren Sapp doesn’t hold back from throwing shade. In 2018, he criticized Odell Beckham Jr. by saying that he isn’t great. However, Sapp believes that there is something greater in Odell’s life now. Moreover, it will change the WR as a person. Even after his Super Bowl win in the last season, Warren isn’t satisfied and sticks to his words.
He believes that having a new child will change OBJ as a man, and if that doesn’t change him, nothing will. Sapp is adamant about the change in the athlete’s life and strongly feels that it will change his performance.

What makes Warren Sapp feel that Odell Beckham Jr. is not a skilled performer?
In the interview with the 2002 Super Bowl-winning champion; the reporters asked him about Odell Beckham Jr. joining the Las Angeles Rams and his playoff run to the Super bowl until he got hurt. Expressing his feelings on the same, Sapp said that even after this performance, people’s narrative about him has not changed at all.
Moreover, he remarked, “The kid’s gonna change him, though. That’s the thing I wanna see. Because that’s what changed me. That’s what made me, you know, look at those five things more closely. Because I had someone at home, I was gonna have to answer to.”
