Video: Asante Samuel Calls Out Deion Sanders' Stats and Shannon Sharpe amid Beef

Former New England Patriots, Philadelphia Eagles and Atlanta Falcons cornerback Asante Samuel took a shot at Hall of Fame tight end Shannon Sharpe this week amid his ongoing feud with Hall of Fame cornerback and University of Colorado head football coach Deion Sanders.

In a video posted on X, Samuel accused Sharpe of being "brainwashed" into thinking Sanders is the greatest cornerback of all time:

Samuel suggested that Sharpe and others anecdotally call Sanders the greatest corner in NFL history without having statistical evidence to back it up, noting that the most interceptions Prime Time ever had in a season was "six or seven," while he had six or seven in a season "three, four, five, six, seven damn times."

To Samuel's point, Sanders had a career-high seven picks with the Falcons in 1993, as well as six with the Falcons in 1991 and with the San Francisco 49ers in 1994.

Meanwhile, Samuel led the NFL with 10 interceptions as a Patriot in 2006 and nine as an Eagle in 2009. He also had six picks in 2007 and seven in 2010.

Sanders had 53 career interceptions compared to Samuel's 51, although Sanders played in 31 more games. Samuel also had seven career playoff picks to Sanders' five, and they each won a pair of Super Bowls.

The issues between Samuel and Sanders began last week when Sanders went on NFL Network and criticized the "T-step" technique used by many cornerbacks:

Samuel offered a rebuttal on X, calling Sanders' opinion "foolishness," and Sanders later clapped back:

On Sunday, Sharpe involved himself into the debate by saying no one will ever mention Sanders and Samuel "in the same breath."

Samuel expressed his belief that Sharpe was only going so hard for Sanders since they are friends and because Sanders would get mad at Sharpe if he didn't show him respect.

Whatever the reason, Sharpe made it clear that he doesn't believe Sanders is in the same class as Sanders despite them boasting similar career numbers.

Thus far, Pro Football Hall of Fame voters have agreed, as Sanders was a first-ballot inductee, while Samuel has yet to even reach the final round of Hall of Fame voting.
