Speaking to the media on Thursday ahead of their Week 6 matchup with the New York Jets, Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox couldn’t stop himself from trolling Jets head coach Robert Saleh when asked how the team planned on stopping running back Breece Hall.
“We gotta kiss him 11 times, put 11 helmets on him,” said Cox.
Key to containing Breece Hall? “Gotta go kiss him 11 times.”
