Washington Redskins cornerback Josh Norman continues to roast wide receivers who dare to try him.

Following Sunday's 27-10 win over the Oakland Raiders, Norman ripped into Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree, both of whom had miserable games.

"First and foremost, you don't come in here and say what you gonna put on somebody," Norman said, per FS21. "Two hundred yards? They didn't even catch two balls. He only caught one, huh? So please, whatever you do, do not run your mouth if you're a wide receiver and you expect to show up on Sundays because I'm telling you, we are here, we are waiting. Don't come out here and tell me what you're going to do, show me. You have to run through me to get that.

"So, whatever that young cat said, Cooper, go on and take it back. Crabtree, I have nothing to say to you. Yes, I may be Cover 2, I'll Cover 1, too. I'll Cover 1, I'll Cover 2, I'll Cover 3, and Cover 4. All of them. All the ingredients and make a perfect attack."

Cooper was held to one catch for 6 yards, while Crabtree recorded one reception for 7 yards before leaving the game with a chest injury.

It appears the Raiders' star duo tried to trash-talk Norman, and the former All-Pro cornerback played his best football, fueled by their comments.

Lesson be learned: if you trash-talk Norman, you'd be better bring your A game.
