Emotions from a 32-6 beatdown in the New York Jets versus Buffalo Bills Week 11 matchup spilled into the tunnel.
CBS2 New York sports director Otis Livingston captured the confrontation on video after the game.
“The near fight in question. [Micheal] Clemons and Dion Dawkins have to be separated. Two big dudes almost locked horns.”
Connor Hughes of SNY said it was “a HUGE fight in [the] hallway leading back to the locker rooms between the Jets and Bills.”
“The fight started between Clemons & Dawkins off the field. Spilled into the tunnel. Others then involved. It wasn’t pretty,” Hughes explained.
Origin of Jets-Bills Beef From Week 11 Matchup
With 12:21 remaining in the game, Dawkins came pulling around and smacked Clemons during a play. After the play was over, Dawkins threw himself on top of Clemons for extra emphasis.
This seemed to infuriate Clemons who immediately responded with a massive shove and then flex posed in front of him. Dawkins flopped on the ground, stayed there motionless for a few seconds, then popped back up and waved to the fans.
Dawkins was flagged 15-yards for an unnecessary roughness penalty for his extracurricular activities.
Rich Cimini of ESPN said Clemons, “left the locker room when approached by reporters who wanted to ask about his scuffle with Dawkins.”
Dawkins on the other hand seemed to have no issue sharing his feelings on what transpired after the game.
“I’m a humble guy. I’m not a fan, man. I’m not a fan of the Jets. Very disrespectful players,” Dawkins told Matt Parrino on X previously Twitter. “It’s what it is and when we could run and pass and beat a team like that – cool. Thumbs up.”
“It’s probably anger, a little bit of – a lot of bit of emotions,” Dawkins continued via New York Upstate. “There’s a lot of emotional guys over there. Very emotional guys, like even their d-line coach, very emotional. Unmanly. Just very emotional guys.”
Jets Season on the Brink of Spiraling out of Control
The Jets have now lost three games in a row for the second time this season.
Gang Green sits at 4-6 on the year and currently sits at No. 14 in the AFC playoff picture out of 16 possible teams.
That led to several people taking to social media to turn the page to the upcoming 2024 NFL draft. Technically speaking the green and white are still alive in the playoff conversation but they don’t pass the eye test.
If the season ended today, the Jets would hold the No. 11 overall pick in the first round according to Tankathon.
That first-round draft choice was a conditional pick involved in the Aaron Rodgers trade with the Green Bay Packers. If he played at least 65 percent of the offensive snaps during the 2023 season, the Jets would have owed its first-round pick to Green Bay.
However, he tore his Achilles in Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills and even with a return would be unable to achieve those playing time incentives.
So instead the Jets will sacrifice its’ 2024 second-round pick to the Packers instead of its top round draft choice.
