Beckham: I'm cancer to a team that's OK with losing

Odell Beckham Jr. took to Twitter on Monday to respond to New York Giants general manager Dave Gettleman's veiled comments about the All-Star receiver.

Asked in a Saturday interview if the Giants had a culture problem, Gettleman responded: "Not anymore."

Though the GM didn't mention Beckham by name, the Cleveland Browns wideout addressed Gettleman's comment and his time in New York in a series of tweets.

"Yes, I'm cancer to a place that's OK (with) losing," he tweeted.

Ask any one of my teammates of who I was as a teammates and a man and a person.... yes I'm cancer to a place that's ok wit losing because I want to win that BADDD. Ur absolutely correct !

The Giants traded the three-time Pro Bowler to the Browns in exchange for a first- and third-round pick as well as safety Jabrill Peppers.

Beckham opted to end his Twitter tirade on a positive note:
