"Justin Tuck has a message for LeSean McCoy –- it's personal now.
The Eagles running back recently took shots at Osi Umenyiora, calling the Giants defensive end overrated, soft and the third best defensive lineman on the Giants on Twitter.
Umenyiora responded by referring to McCoy as "she" and Lady Gaga.
Now Tuck has something to say about McCoy.
"Well, two things, yes we will take that personally," Tuck said in an interview on Mike and Mike in the morning "And two, he might want to watch some film before he starts talking about a defensive end of Osi's quality. I don't know where he would say something of that nature. Obviously Osi's stats back up the fact that he is a pretty good NFL football player."
Tuck, an old-school guy at heart, said he doesn't understand why people take shots at others via social media. Either way, he says the Giants will handle their business on the football field.
"I honestly think social media has made people cowards," Tuck said. "Where I'm from, if you had a problem with somebody, you said it to their face. I think now people are hiding behind computers and smart phones to get out something they got on their chest where I'm used to having a problem with a person, you go tell it to their face. You don't go blast it out so everybody in the world can see about it."
"I don't know what has gotten into these young guys," Tuck continued. "I think Osi handled it the right way. We will handle it on the football field when we get the opportunity."
As for Umenyiora's uncertain future, Tuck wants to see his sack partner remain a Giant but hopefully get what he wants as well. Umenyiora wants a new contract.
"It makes it very difficult for an offensive line or an offensive coordinator to kind of scheme us when you got both sides of the defensive line having quality defensive ends like that," said Tuck, who had 11.5 sacks to go with Umenyiora's 11.5 sacks last season. "
