Former NBA star Austin Rivers is facing massive backlash from NFL players over his recent viral comments.

During an appearance on the Pat McAfee show, Rivers said he believed that the NBA is the superior league because NBA players could play in the NFL while NFL players couldn’t play in the NBA.

“I can take 30 players right now in the NBA and throw them in the NFL. You cannot take 30 NFL players and put them in the NBA.”

It didn’t take long for NFL players to respond to Rivers’ comments, and they crushed him on social media.

“You don’t got a job in either right now, go head and try it”-JJ Watt

“I watched him say he quit football after one day because it was too hot and the coach was yelling at him” Phillip Dorsett

“The #1 job requirement of being an NFL player is to be semi-psychotic with little to zero regard for your body. You list me those 30 NBA players here in this thread with examples please…”-Andrew Hawkins

“I usually don’t get into this but if you’re not a perennial all nba defender you can’t guard me. It’s impossible”-Tyrann Mathieu

“and do what ?? What are they doing in the NFL??”-Matt Leinart

“We gone fold every single one😂”-Patrick Queen

Rivers ended up firing back at JJ Watt after he dunked on him.
