The NFL is full of bitter rivalries between teams and opposing players.
That is what makes the product so much fun to watch for fans.
Everyone loves to see players going at it and trying to get the best of one another.
One rivalry that is budding is between Jaire Alexander of the Green Bay Packers and Justin Jefferson of the Minnesota Vikings.
These two went toe to toe last season and the trash talk is already starting before the upcoming year.
According to NFL on CBS, Jefferson said: “Nobody’s really worried about him,” when referring to Alexander.
“Nobody’s really worried about him.”

This all stemmed from when Alexander did the “Griddy” last year after breaking up a pass against Jefferson.
But, Jefferson was quick to point out that he had 184 yards in a game against the Packers last year.
When it comes to the best wide receivers in the NFL, Jefferson has to be in the discussion.
He is viewed as the best by many and he has only played three NFL seasons.
Each year he has at least 1,400 yards receiving and has been named an All-Pro three times.
Jefferson is a true difference-maker at WR and someone that needs to be the focal point of opposing defenses.
While trash talk is a major part of the game, Alexander should be careful that he does not poke the bear too much.
These two will go head-to-head two more times this season and they will be must-see matchups.
