Jordan Poyer hit

Antonio Andrews and Jordan Poyer are in a social media spat over a blindside hit from Andrews on Sunday that left Poyer with a lacerated kidney.

Poyer was in punt coverage for the Cleveland Browns during the team’s game at Tennessee Sunday when Andrews obliterated him with a blindside hit. Poyer was taken to the hospital where he was determined to have a lacerated kidney, which has landed him on IR.

Despite the injury that it caused, Andrews posted video of the play on his Instagram page.

Relentless…

Andrews seemingly boasting about the play left Poyer uncomfortable.

Buddy posted the hit to his Social Media page?

Andrews responded and seemed to show little remorse, saying football is a “contact sport.”

Allen doesn’t seem fazed by the criticism he received for the insensitive social media post. He wrote on Twitter that he is still “gonna get paid and get my 8 hrs of sleep” despite the fuss.
