Jets' Sauce Gardner Trolls Bills' Dion Dawkins After Shirtless Interview Video

Timothy RappFeb 26, 2024

Buffalo Bills offensive tackle Dion Dawkins appeared on VladTV earlier in February, shirtless, and said during the interview that he hates the New York Jets and that there's "people that play the sport because they love the sport, and then there's people that play the sport just to try to be cool," and Jets' players were the latter.

"Like, those are a bunch of dudes that just want to take pictures on Instagram," he added. "Like, that's wack."

Cornerback Sauce Gardner had the following response:

The bad blood between Dawkins and the Jets is nothing new. After a November matchup between the teams, a 32-6 win for the Bills, Dawkins and Jets defensive lineman Michael Clemons had to be separated in the tunnel (NSFW language):

That likely stemmed from a particular sequence in the game, which started when Dawkins was called for an unnecessary roughness call after knocking Clemons to the ground. On the very next play, Clemons returned the favor and Dawkins flopped to the ground before standing up, sprinting back behind the line of scrimmage and waving goodbye to the Jets:

Dawkins and Clemons were also reportedly talking trash back and forth during the contest.

"I'm a humble guy. I'm not a fan, man—I'm not a fan of the Jets," the Bills' offensive tackle told reporters after the game. "Very disrespectful players. It's what it is, and when we can run and pass and beat a team like that, cool. Thumbs up."

Gardner told reporters at the time that he was just trying to break up the fracas in the tunnel.

"A lot of emotions going into it," he added. "That's it. A lot of emotions—frustrated. I have no issues with none of them. I was trying to resolve everything."

Dawkins likely fanned the flames with his latest comments, however. But hey, there's nothing wrong with two divisional rivals genuinely disliking each other.
