Buffalo Bills linebacker Taron Johnson has accused the Detroit Lions of some lewd behavior following their massive win against the NFC outfit on Sunday.
The Lions have raised plenty of questions, with Dan Campbell making the perplexing decision to attempt an onside kick with 12 minutes left in the game. It was one of two onside kick attempts from the Lions that were unsuccessful, but that wasn’t due to a lack of effort, according to Johnson.
While talking about Detroit’s second unsuccessful onside kick attempt with just a few seconds remaining on the clock, Johnson exposed Campbell’s team for their dirty tactics.
“[They did] whole lotta pulling, a whole lotta pinching,” he told reporters after the game, “putting fingers where they not supposed to be and all that stuff.
“We did a good job on that play.”
🚨WOW: TARON JOHNSON SAYS #LIONS PLAYERS WERE PUTTING FINGERS WHERE THEY WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ON THE ONSIDE KICK SCRUM.
😳
Wow…

The Buffalo Bills have added a pair of former NBA superstars to their ownership group.
The AFC side announced 10 new partners this Wednesday, having brought in minority owners for the first time in the organization’s history. And two Basketball Hall of Famers, who happen to be cousins, have found themselves in the mix.
Vince Carter and Tracy McGrady, who both played for the Toronto Raptors during their careers, now own minority stakes in the franchise.
“It’s a huge honor to join this historic Bills organization,” Carter said in a statement. “I’m truly thankful the Pegula family has given me the opportunity to help the franchise continue to grow and thrive in player growth, community service, and of course, winning the Lombardi Trophy. See you soon Bills Mafia!”

Tracy McGrady Said It Was A “Dream Come True”
McGrady, who played for 15 years, started out a year before his cousin as a rookie in Toronto but hit the heights of basketball stardom with the Orlando Magic.
He branded this latest development a “dream come true.”
“Sports have been a lifelong passion, and the chance to contribute to such a top-tier organization is a true honor,” he added.
The NBA icons aren’t the only athletes who have joined the Buffalo Bills ownership group. Jozy Altidore, a former MLS champion, has also been brought in as an investor.
The NFL franchise is worth $4.2 billion, per Statista data.
