Germaine Pratt Reacts To Video Of Him Yelling About Joseph Ossai Play

by

Germaine Pratt is currently a trending topic on Twitter thanks to his reaction to losing in the AFC Championship Game. In the end, the Bengals lost by a field goal that was kicked with just three seconds left in the game. Overall, it was a devastating loss that boiled down to one play.

As many already know, Joseph Ossai pushed Patrick Mahomes when he was already out of bounds. Subsequently, Ossai was issued an unnecessary roughness penalty which ultimately put the Chiefs in field goal position. Consequently, Pratt was angry and let those frustrations be hard in the hallway, yelling “why the f*** you touch the quarterback?”

Germaine Pratt Speaks

With the clip of Pratt going viral, he decided to respond on social media. In the IG post below, you can see that Pratt isn’t happy with how he is being portrayed. Overall, he believes he is just a passionate individual whose focus is always on winning.

“Yep ppl will post anything on social media for likes and views,” Pratt wrote. ” I have real feelings sometimes they are raw. If you love something as much as I do sometimes things will be said in the heat of the moment. But I know what type of teammate I am.

“Trust me no love lost, I’m hurt. Remember some ppl will hate you, rate you, and shake you and try to break you but I will stand tall like always.”

At the end of the day, emotions run high when you play a competitive sport, and that is exactly what we saw here. It is very hard to blame Pratt in this situation, especially when you take into consideration what was at stake. Hopefully, both Ossai and Pratt will have opportunities to redeem themselves, in the future.

Bengals linebacker Germaine Pratt was caught on video screaming at his teammate, Joseph Ossai, for a critical late-game error during the team’s 23-20 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Conference Championship. Ossai drew a flag for unnecessary roughness after a late hit on Patrick Mahomes. The penalty put the Chiefs in a perfect position for a game-winning field goal.

“It’s my fucking last year. Why the fuck you touch the QB!?” Pratt yelled at Ossai while the team was walking back to the locker room.

Cowboys star linebacker responded to the clip on Twitter writing, “This lame asf!”

Later, Pratt clarified what he meant by it being his “last year.” He explained that this is the final season of his contract and, while he’d like to return, he’s not certain the team will want to resign him.

Despite Pratt’s outburst, many of Ossai’s other teammates were more supportive. Quarterback Joe Burrow emphasized that one play doesn’t determine an entire game.

“There were a lot of plays other than that that could have turned the tide in that game and won us that game,” Burrow told reporters. “So that’s not the only one.”

Ossai expressed gratitude for the teammates that had his back.

“It means the world to me,” he said. “These guys mean a lot to me. We come every day and we work hard for each other, and to know that they have my back — it’s giving me peace right now.”
