Shortly after USC's 52-42 loss Saturday night to Pac-12 rival Washington, Caleb Williams was spotted sobbing in his mother's arms in the stands.

The viral moment prompted criticism of Williams, the defending Heisman Trophy winner and a candidate to become the first overall selection in next year's NFL Draft.

Some critics argued the moment with his family could hurt his draft stock.

One Super Bowl champion is in that category, finding the tears cringeworthy.

New York Giants legend Amani Toomer said Williams crying was "strike two" for the quarterback. Toomer said Williams' first strike was painting his fingernails in the past, writing the words  "F--- UTAH" on his nails before last season's Pac-12 title game against the Utes, which the Trojans lost.

"How are you gonna come in the huddle as a rookie. You got your nails painted. You got your tissues in your back pocket. And you know where your mom is in the stands, you go crying to her. Come on, man. What are we talking about?" Toomer told ESPN New York radio's "DiPietro and Rothenberg" Tuesday. 

"Maybe I’m old school, but man, there’s no crying in football. I know there’s no crying in baseball, but there’s damn sure as no crying in football. Come on. What are we talking about?"
