The Cincinnati Bengals had to deal with some pre-game trash talk from Kansas City Chiefs defensive back Justin Reid this past week before going out and getting a win.
Reid then apologized in the post-game presser for not giving Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst his respect.
But on Tuesday…Reid got to talking again, this time on Twitter. In a bit of a strange tweet, Reid said that while the Chiefs lost, he was still right and told onlookers to “cry about it.”
A strange comment, considering Reid’s defense was the biggest reason for the loss, making the Chiefs 0-3 against the Bengals in the 2022 calendar year:
Unpopular opinion: we lost… but I was still right 🤐
Cry about it

Reid had predicted he’d lock down Hurst and others. But Hurst left early with an injury. Tee Higgins scored a touchdown. Ja’Marr Chase had 97 yards and a pair of critical plays in the fourth quarter. Tyler Boyd would have scored too if he didn’t drop a wide-open touchdown.
Reid might be a little irritated that Joe Burrow took a bit of a shot at him on Monday, but things have reached a silly point now as the Bengals turn their attention to the Cleveland Browns.
