Robbie Amell may not be a quarterback, but he’s out to prove he’s better than the one he played on-screen.

After being called out for his throwing ability Monday on Twitter, as a clip from the 2015 comedy “The Duff” made the rounds online, the 31-year-old actor replied to a post from Colin Cowherd, who wrote: “Brutal. May lead my show tomorrow.”

“This is my actual nightmare,” Amell replied, adding a production assistant was “standing 2 feet from me who has to catch these balls so they don’t hit the thousands of dollars of camera equipment and lighting set up.”

Though it’s been four years since the film’s release, Amell said he had been dreading this form of judgment day, which ultimately impacted date night with his wife, “Designated Survivor” actress Italia Ricci.

“These guys are ruining my f–king date night,” an expecting Ricci tweeted Monday evening. “@RobbieAmell is outside pumping up a football that I’m definitely going to be asked to film him throwing.

“I hope whichever grown man started this really enjoyed watching his teenage rom-com.”

Amell later grabbed a football with the camera ready and waiting.

“I know how ridiculous this is, Marcus, you’re a d–k,” Amell said before tossing the ball, appearing to reference sports contributor Marcus Mosher, whose criticism prompted the unlikely chain of events.

Mosher seems to be a fan of Amell. Responding to a follower, Mosher tweeted Tuesday: “He’s a good dude. Handled this all well.”
