New York Giants star wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. had to give credit where it was due.

Beckham stole the show last night in a Monday Night Football clash with the Cincinnati Bengals, finishing the game with 10 receptions for 97 yards and a touchdown in a 21-20 win. But in a post-game interview with the ESPN MNF crew, he was asked about teammate Landon Collins.

Collins, who is on his way to his first Pro Bowl appearance in his second season with the Giants, played for Alabama from 2012-14. Beckham, of course, is in his third NFL season after a college stint with LSU.

He opted to tip his hat to the Crimson Tide, saying Collins “has been prepared since he’s been in college.”

Respect.
