In February of 2024, during an interview on VladTV, Bills offensive lineman Dion Dawkins had some choice words for the Jets.
“I hate them. All of them, bro,” Dawkins said. “When it comes to sports, right, 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. I feel like they play the sport to try to be cool. Like, those are a bunch of dudes that just want to take pictures on Instagram. That’s whack.”
He also feels that Jets defensive end Michael Clemons, who he got into a skirmish with in the tunnel following a Jets-Bills game last November, is a “weirdo.”
“Weirdos being weird.” Dawkins to VladTV on what caused the skirmish. “I don’t even want to give the man no credit talking about him. But number 72. B—- boy.”
Clemons and the Jets face the Bills on Monday Night at MetLife Stadium.
And the Jets will have a chance to show Dawkins they play the sport for more than just trying “to be cool” and to “take pictures on Instagram.”
