OT Phillip Daniels (Official Thread)




“I was just chilling. I was like, ‘OK, cool guy, I'm finna go against him.’ I didn't really see too much of nothing on film. And then before the play he smacked my helmet off, he was like, ‘You trash,’ lined up and said it before me,” Daniels said. “I was like, ‘Huh? Me? I know you’re not talking to me.’ I hemmed him up. He took my helmet off, I’m still going, had a few choice words.”

Daniels – who posted a clip of Simmons’ penalty on Instagram on Monday, drawing three crying laughing emojis from Simmons in the post’s comments – said “it was cool after that” between him and Simmons and that he didn’t hear much more trash talk from Simmons for the rest of the game. But he was visibly fired up after drawing that penalty, which he said was a special moment for him as Ohio Stadium celebrated the penalty with him.

“After I did all that, the whole stadium erupted. It was kind of like a movie a little bit, I ain't gonna lie,” Daniels said Wednesday.

Daniels said he’s not typically one to initiate trash talk himself, but he will respond if someone talks trash to him – ideally with his play as much as his mouth.

“I don't talk trash; I'm really, I'm an offensive lineman, I'm tired,” Daniels said with a laugh. “But if you try me, I'm not gonna just stand there and let you say something to me, you know what I'm saying? I'm gonna respond, either on the football side or both.”

“We just set the tone,” Daniels said. “You're gonna come here and talk crazy, y’all think y'all the number one team, y'all gonna come in here and just beat on us? Nah. Home-field advantage, and we got one of the best QBs in the league, we got Jeremiah, we got the whole O-line, we got the running backs; everybody was clowning. So it just felt good.”
