The Jacksonville Jaguars lost a tough game to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, but rookie first-round pick Jalen Ramsey was quite proud of the way he played.
After his team’s 27-23 loss, Ramsey was quick to point out that Aaron Rodgers did not get the best of him.
Jalen Ramsey not happy about the loss, but did have this comment about Aaron Rodgers: "He didn't throw my way. Write that."

The former Florida State star later took to Twitter to reiterate that Rodgers chose not to challenge him.
Lol people quick to want a story so here you go: ZERO completions on me. I back up my talk. I play for the Lord and my teammates! We fought!

Ramsey made it clear in the days leading up to the game that he is not afraid of Rodgers. You can read the comments he made to reporters about the matchup here.
We don’t blame Ramsey for being proud of the way he played against a tough passing attack in his first career game, but there’s nothing more selfish than bragging about your individual performance after a loss. The Jags had a chance to make a huge statement by beating a team that many believe is a Super Bowl contender, and they didn’t finish the job. That’s all that should matter to the No. 5 overall pick.
