Broncos star sparks feud with Giants players and fans by calling them 'delusional' in deleted post before Week 7 showdown

Broncos star Nik Bonitto sparked a feud with Giants players and fans on Thursday night after he appeared to call Big Blue's fans 'delusional.'

Coming off of their massive win over the Eagles last week, the 2-4 Giants will head to Denver this week and face the 4-2 Broncos.

And ahead of the Sunday afternoon clash, Defensive Player of the Year candidate Bonitto seemingly took a shot at Giants fans.

'I've never seen such delusional fanbase,' he wrote on X.

The post unsurprisingly spread across social media despite being deleted, and Giants linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux soon fired back with a series of cryptic posts.

After asking 'Hold on what I miss ???', he posted a GIF of Denzel Washington nodding his head and saying 'OK, alright.'

He later posted a GIF of Robert De Niro smoking a cigarette in 'Goodfellas.'

Bonitto's post also fired up Giants fans. 

'This boy is about to get Bo Nix killed!! Thibs and Carter already saw what was going on and reacted to it all and Nix is going to have a huge target on his back now,' one wrote about the Broncos' passer.

'Nik Bonnito realized Andrew Thomas was the best LT in football and deleted that tweet ASAP,' another said.

Bonnito is not the only Broncos player who has had some fighting words for the Giants this week.

While Jaxson Dart has mostly impressed in three starts thus far, Denver linebacker Jonathon Cooper seemed to play down the rookie's ability.

'He’s a young guy. He’s feelin’ himself a little bit. He’s out there running around. He’s got the chain on. He’s dancing. I feel like everybody needs something, you know,' Cooper told reporters.

In response to that, Carter responded on Thursday by writing: 'put ya 3D glasses on.'

Bonnito has had a brilliant start to the season thus far, as he's recorded a sack in every game and leads the league with 8 sacks in total.

Last weekend, he notched a sack and six combined tackles against the Jets as Denver held New York without a touchdown in London.

The Broncos will look to shut down the Giants at home after they beat the Eagles 34-17 last week.
