New York Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner accused Patriots quarterback Mac Jones of hitting him below the belt following a skirmish in the second half of the Jets 15-10 loss to New England.

After a failed QB sneak from Mac Jones on a 4th-and-1, a scrap broke out amid the pile of players around the line of scrimmage. Gardner appeared to push Jones to the ground

“That’s probably the first time that’s ever happened to me,” Gardner said. “He got tackled. He reached out to me to get me to help him up. I just moved his hand out of the way. He got up and then came up to me like ‘Good job.’ While he was saying that, he hit me in my private parts. I didn’t react like I really wanted to. I definitely wasn’t expecting that. First time for everything I guess.”

Asked afterward about Gardner’s accusations, Jones said that he didn’t believe he did anything wrong.
