The smack talk for this Saturday’s Wild Card game between the Steelers and Ravens has begun and the first shots were fired in the Baltimore locker room
Some Ravens players were recorded reacting to quarterback Lamar Jackson’s unisex cologne, “Night Lights”.
While defensive tackle Travis Jones was saying it “smells good”, another player in the background can be heard saying “it smells like George Pickens.”
“Soft? Yeah, smells just like that,” the player adds.
The Steelers wide receiver has been criticized by players on other teams for his behavior on the field, how he reacts to penalties, not getting the ball and other issues.
Some fans and commentators have claimed the Steelers coaches are coddling Pickens.
During this past weekend’s loss to Cincinnati, tight end Pat Freiermuth could be seen holding Pickens back after an alleged argument with a fan in the stands at Acrisure Stadium.
Pickens had only one catch for zero yards and three drops in the loss.
The Ravens have taken the first verbal shot.
Hopefully, Pickens can take the shot and use it as motivation to put up big numbers against the Ravens defense.
By the way, Night Lights “is a unisex fragrance that can be worn by literally anyone! With a warm woody smell to spice up your day!” Jackson’s website says.
