Former NFL coach and current analyst Rex Ryan has strongly criticized Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty after Jeanty reportedly called New York Jets players "soft." The exchange adds tension between the AFC rivals ahead of their upcoming matchup.
According to reports from ClutchPoints, Jeanty's remarks about the Jets' toughness drew a sharp response from Ryan, who played for and coached the Jets during his career. Ryan, known for his outspoken defensive mindset, did not hold back in his assessment of Jeanty's comments.
The Raiders and Jets are scheduled to face each other this season, giving the war of words added significance. Neither team has officially commented on the exchange beyond the initial reports.
