New York Jets coach Rex Ryan doesn't have much sympathy for the Miami Dolphins in the wake of cornerback Will Allen's season-ending knee injury.
"I don't care about that," Ryan said. "We lost a Pro Bowl nose tackle (Kris Jenkins) and a Pro Bowl running back (Leon Washington), so boo hoo hoo."
Apprised of Ryan's comments, Dolphins linebacker Joey Porter wasn't to pleased to hear it.
"It didn’t mean nothing in preseason, when he was talking before," Porter said. "When he was taking shots, and making fun of a player being out for the season, as a player, you take that personal. That’s like talking about my family member, what he did.
"So he made a little comment about Will Allen being hurt, saying, ‘Boo hoo hoo,’ as if it’s a joke or something. We’ll see if it’s a joke on Sunday, because there’s nothing the coach can do about it. He’ll see his players out there with us on Sunday, that’s something they’ll have to deal with."
And Porter said he's got something in store for Jets rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez.
"Now they’re starting to see he's just a rookie," Porter said. "He’s been humbled. Now we got some humble pie to serve him.
"I’m not worried about him eating hot dogs on the sideline. I’m worried about how I can get him on sideline, with an ice pack."
