Panthers LB calls out Patriots QB Mac Jones for ‘dirty play’ that injured Brian Burns

Carolina Panthers linebacker Haason Reddick called out Mac Jones on Sunday afternoon for what he saw as an “egregious” and “completely dirty” play in the first quarter of their 24-6 loss to the New England Patriots.

Jones, who lost the ball after being sacked in the first quarter, held onto Burns’ ankle as he twisted to get away — something that forced the Panthers defensive end to miss part of the game.

“Definitely thought it was a dirty play," Reddick said, via ESPN.
