The Arizona Cardinals wrapped up their first week of OTAs earlier in the week but some players kept working out, even as we approach the holiday weekend.
Two such players are defensive lineman J.J. Watt and tight end Zach Ertz.
Watt has a minor (and not serious) beef with Ertz because of something that happened on Thursday.
Watt set the stage on Twitter.
Do I have any ground to stand on here?!

Ertz approached Watt on Thursdsay about getting donuts for strength and conditioning coach Buddy Morris and asked him what type of donut he liked. Watt said pink/strawberry glazed and maple glazed.
Friiday morning arrives and Ertz comes with donuts. None of them were pink or maple.
Watt is grateful for the donuts but wondered whether he should be at all upset.
Ertz thinks not.
In regards to donutgate…
JJs first request, “pink/strawberry”, wasn’t even on the online ordering menu…
Therefore the rest of his order was disregarded 🤷🏼♂️Let’s just focus on the part of me getting a dozen donuts and not focus on the rest 😂🤣 https://t.co/3vwvPHbN6s

What do you think? Does Watt have a right be upset? Or should he just be glad Ertz brought donuts? Vote in the poll and give your thoughts in the comments section after the article.
