Giants Legend Tiki Barber Trucks Ryan Clark For Sucking Up To Saquon Barkley

Former Giants running back Tiki Barber had a fiery comeback for Ryan Clark after the ESPN pundit took shots at Tiki and kissed up to Saquon Barkley after the running back left NY for Philly. 

Tiki Barber questioned Barkley's loyalty to Giants fans after leaving for the Eagles, saying Barkley was "dead" to Giants fans. 

WATCH:

The typically cool Saquon pushed back on Tiki's comments, via X, holding his commitment to the Giants higher than Barber's, the franchise's all-time leading rusher (10,449 yards).

Without any call for his input, Ryan Clark chimed in on the Barber-Barkley controversy on his podcast and accused Tiki Barber of being a bad teammate from the time their careers overlapped in New York from 2002 to 2003.

On his "The Pivot" podcast, Ryan Clark accused Tiki of being a selfish veteran during their time as Giants, seemingly crushed that Barber never took him under his wing. 

Tiki responded and told Clark to "shut the hell up."

LISTEN:

"It’s an opportunistic shot that he’s taking because he thinks he’s gonna gain an advantage by being a jacka** to me," Tiki said concerning Clark. "Congratulations Ryan, good luck in your career as well."

"Shut the hell up, Ryan Clark. Please. You sound like a fool," Barber added.

Tiki called Clark's account of their time in New York a lie.

"Wow, Ryan Clark. You are making ‘blank’ up," Tiki said. "Because you don’t know me like that, dude. I didn’t even realize how long you were on the Giants. Your first year, you were a practice squad player, and you were on the defensive side of the ball. What is he talking about, that I didn’t embrace young players?"

Tiki Barber then handed Clark receipts on the memorable Giants players he mentored and challenged Ryan to stop kissing Saquon Barkley's a**. 

Will Clark accept?

"Ask Brandon Jacobs if I embraced him. Ask Derrick Ward if I embraced him. Ask David Diehl, or Richie Seubert, or any of those guys on my side of the ball if I embraced them. What the hell is he talking about?" Tiki Barber asked. "It’s like he’s fitting a narrative. He’s acting like I’m still a player when it pertains to my comments on Saquon Barkley, and he’s kissing Saquon’s a** to ingratiate himself with Saquon. His comments make no sense, because he’s not talking about someone he knows well enough to talk about."

"I honestly don’t remember interacting with him as a player," Tiki added, "I thought he was a decent player, went on and had an okay career, won a Super Bowl, I give him kudos. But now that he’s the big wig at ESPN, he thinks he can just take shots, and his word is gospel? That Michael Strahan and Shaun O’Hara aren’t still my friends? What are you talking about?"

The New York media should be busy with the Saquon Barkley talk next season. After a sour decision to go their separate ways, Barkley and the Giants now battle to win their divorce. Giants fans can't wait to watch Barkley fail and Eagles fans hope to watch Barkley steamroll his ex-team. 

Meanwhile, no one's watching Ryan Clark.
