Josh Jacobs, Matthew Berry In Weird Feud Over Fantasy Football

Fantasy football can bring out the best in people ... and the worst. The latest example of that is an odd feud happening between Raiders running back Josh Jacobs and fantasy football guru Matthew Berry.

It all started this past weekend when Jacobs posted on Instagram that he would not be suiting up. But apparently, that was an attempt to troll. Soon after, a follow-up post from Jacobs included a middle finger emoji. That was evidently meant for fantasy football players.

Matthew Berry ... yeah, he didn't like that very much.

During The Fantasy Show on Wednesday, Berry went on a rant about the former Alabama running back. Here is some of what he had to say about Jacobs' actions:

Jacobs ended up blocking Berry, and that was that ... well, except for this last tweet from the ESPN personality.

Was it the correct move from Jacobs? Probably not, as there are a lot of fans out there who love him. And yes, that includes people who own him in fantasy football.

There were much better ways to go about getting his point across.

But let's not act we don't know what the second-year running back is talking about here. Jacobs is clearly referring to those who get way too worked up over a poor performance from a player. And sometimes, those people verbally attack players -- even threaten them in some cases.

That has to be frustrating. Those are the people Jacobs was giving the middle finger too, and he clearly spelled that out in his tweet.

This has been such an odd feud, but I guess it's par for the course in 2020. Back to our regularly scheduled programming.
