A New York Giants<\/a> star is firing back at a team legend\u2019s criticism of his play this season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Carl Banks, one of the team\u2019s best defensive players to wear the Big Blue jersey, recently called out Lawrence,<\/a> saying that no one in the league respects him anymore. Banks said he has a rapport with Lawrence, but a scathing performance statement like that, even from a team legend, doesn\u2019t usually sit well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lawrence was asked about what Banks said at his locker on Wednesday, and as you\u2019d expect, he didn\u2019t appreciate it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“He\u2019s delusional,” Lawrence replied, per The New York Post<\/a>. “\u2026 His words are delusional.”<\/p>\n

Perhaps Banks was trying to motivate the Giants\u2019 star defensive tackle, but Lawrence doesn\u2019t view it that way at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Let\u2019s say this \u2013 I hope people start trying to disrespect me. Let\u2019s say that,” he said.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I hope they start not respect me because that\u2019s not what\u2019s showing on the field. They\u2019re showing a lot of respect on the field.”<\/p>\n

The respect Lawrence is talking about is the double-teams he consistently gets on gameday, and that\u2019s not at all uncommon across his Giants tenure. Lawrence is arguably one of the best at his position in the NFL<\/a>, and usually it takes more than one man to stop him from getting into the backfield.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I get a lot of attention,” he noted. “Check the numbers.”<\/p>\n

The numbers, though, are what Banks and others in the Giants\u2019 fan base are looking at with Lawrence this season. The three-time Pro Bowler had nine sacks last season and 44 combined tackles over 12 games.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This year, Lawrence had just half-a-sack with 20 combined tackles in eight games. He did record an interception in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers, while also batting three pass attempts down at the line of scrimmage. Another telling stat is only having four quarterback hits and six total pressures, which is unlike Lawrence. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I think I\u2019m playing well, yes,” Lawrence said. “Those are strong words, but that\u2019s how he feels. F— it.”<\/p>\n

Banks said on X that he is critical of all players on his former team, and that sentiment carried through in a response to The Post as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I love Dex and will continue to support him and his teammates publicly,” he said. “I wish them great success. He remains my favorite Giant. As I stated on my @BleavNetwork pod. In order to get out of the current mess, he and they will have to ask more of themselves. I have been *IMO* fair in my critiques my observations as well as complementary of not just him but others as well. I do *publicly* weekly.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“If he is unhappy with me I am ok with that. It won\u2019t change how I feel about him. Hopefully they will collectively ask more of themselves and finish strong.”<\/p>\n

The Giants, now 2-6 after a loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, will be back at MetLife Stadium to take on the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
