Justin Pugh does not find Odell Beckham to be a distraction

At least one of Odell Beckham Jr.'s teammates doesn't see him as a distraction.

Guard Justin Pugh said Tuesday that he, for one, didn't find Beckham's sideline temper tantrum to be a distraction from the game.

"No, I didn't find it distracting," Pugh said, via James Kratt of NJ.com. "But, obviously, I'm also out there playing. I'm not sitting, watching what's going on the whole time. I've got to worry about what I have to do.

"Obviously he's one of the leaders of this team. He's an emotional guy. We just have to make sure that those emotions are driven to going out there on the field and performing. I think he knows that, he knows that for sure."

Coach Bob McAdoo said Beckham's emotional outbursts could be a "distraction to himself and his teammates." His teammates, or at least this one, don't seem to care. They would care, however, if one of Beckham's outbursts got him hurt, as one nearly did on Sunday. That is probably far more important than any distraction.
