Giants CB Deonte Banks Launches NSFW Rant Against Commanders For Skipping Him In Draft

Cornerbacks and wide receivers can't resist a good "me vs. the world" rant.

Giants cornerback Deonte Banks, selected late in the first round of the draft this offseason, hopped on Instagram Live after New York's 31-19 win to RIP the Washington Commanders for picking Emmanuel Forbes at no. 16 over him.

At 3-8 on the season, Banks and the Giants have little of an edge over any team, apart from Washington, whom the G-Men defeated twice this year.

"Coulda came and got me at 16, and they didn't," Deonte Banks said, madly, on Instagram Live.

WATCH:

"Now I'm 2-0 against you bum a** boys. F**k the Commanders. They think they slick. They finna see me two times a year till the end of my career. Two times a year. Shoulda came and got me."

Banks also trashed Commanders lead wideout Terry McLaurin for his mediocre five-catch, 43-yard performance ... which is pretty bold considering Banks gave up a TD to Jahan Dotson on Sunday.

"I'm just trying to figure out though, did 17 play today?" Banks added. "That's all I wanna know. Did he play today? Did he play? I just wanna know if he played."

Giants players were looking forward to this matchup, even if they're well out of reach concerning a playoff berth. Giants edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux talked trash at Commanders offensive lineman Charles Leno, Jr. — thanking him for his two-sack performance.

Leon was also involved in an in-game scrum. A scuffle broke out after Giants safety Xavier McKinney knocked Commanders QB Sam Howell down out of bounds. The Commander lineman grabbed McKinney by the facemask, and two other players involved got tossed from the game.
