Ryan Clark wants you to believe he is a victim.

Clark — the former NFL safety — wants you to think ESPN executives set him up and threw him out on the street under the guise of mass layoffs. He even fired up the podcast cameras to cry on cue for the internet.

But former NFL running back LeSean McCoy is calling out the waterworks for exactly what they are.

McCoy took one look at Clark's emotional display and immediately dropped the hammer on his fellow broadcaster.

"I can't tell you how he should vent and show his emotion," McCoy said on his Speakeasy podcast.

"So, I mean, I probably wouldn't do this right here, but I mean, this is part of his lane. He's into, what's the word, clicks, likes, you know, that's his thing."

McCoy wasn't buying it.

"I knew it was going to be something. I knew he was going to monetize this whole thing," McCoy added.

"That's what he did. Instead of just getting fired like everybody else, you know what? 'We're going to make some of this thing. We're going to get some clicks. We're going to have a million views on this joint.'"

McCoy hit the nail directly on the head. We have seen this playbook from Clark before.

Once the cameras are on, Clark knows exactly what sells. Race-baiting narratives and professional victimhood have become staples of his brand.

Clark went on his podcast and accused ESPN of portraying him as the "angry Black man" after a producer tried to cool down a spat with Peter Schrager.

McCoy had no interest in validating Clark's latest grievance tour.

"There are certain dudes when they say different things, I watch them, 'Oh yeah, he's a social media guy, he does his stuff for attention,'" McCoy noted.

"I truly think that he's one of them. So, my thing is, I just don't know how real this is."

McCoy pointed out that both men know getting cut comes with the territory. The difference is Clark spent years stepping into controversy, from race-baiting segments to public feuds and on-air outbursts that repeatedly put him in the headlines.

Eventually, ESPN decided it had seen enough.

"Being fired from a job is one thing, but when you get cut, and in football, you understand that route," McCoy said.

"So, I don't feel bad with the tears and all that."

Clark has spent years perfecting his brand of clickbait outrage.

Now that he is on the outside looking in, he is simply doing what he does best... creating content.

Shady McCoy saw right through the act, and frankly, so did everyone else.
