Eli Apple’s team advanced to the AFC Championship game and he has been on a tirade on social media ever since. Apple made a game-saving tip that led to an interception for the Cincinnati Bengals during their 19-16 playoff win on Saturday. One day later, the veteran cornerback was taking shots at the Philadelphia eagles.
Apple became enraged after a 2018 post from DeVonta Smith made a viral comeback. In it, the then-Alabama receiver clowns Apple by saying: “Every time I see Eli Apple 1 on 1 I shake my head.”
“Lmao Jalen hurts his Qb he big mad still shaking his head.”
Apple likely thought the screenshot was a new comment.
