Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner was in a mood to celebrate after Sunday’s win in Green Bay.
Gardner rocked a cheesehead in celebration of his team’s 27-10 win over the Packers on Sunday at Lambeau Field. However, it didn’t seem to initially sit well with Green Bay’s Allen Lazard. The receiver knocked the franchise’s signature cheesehead off Gardner’s head as he made his way into the tunnel.
It appeared to all be in good fun eventually as Lazard praised Gardner’s play after the game.
“It’s a cool name too. Sauce,” Lazard said, according to Pelissero, when asked about the incident. “I can’t even be mad.”
The Jets used their stout run game to blow out the Packers as they put up 179 yards on the ground. With the win, the Jets move to 4-2 for the first time since 2015, marking the fifth time they’ve been 4-2 or better through six games since 2000.
The Packers dropped to 3-3 after their second-straight loss to two teams that have been laughing stocks in years past.
