Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jarvis Landry was the biggest negative mark on the NFL’s Week 7 action after he delivered a wicked cheap shot to Buffalo Bills defensive back Aaron Williams.
What looked like a routine play turned ugly when Landry zeroed in on Williams, left his feet and went high:
Ugh. Total cheap shot here by Jarvis Landry. https://t.co/B7hdQzOnnl

A few things here. One, Williams does need to have his head on a swivel. Two, Landry probably was going right after his blocking assignment.
Neither of those items excuse how dirty the hit was, though. Twitter reacted in kind:
Jarvis Landry at least attempts to come over and apologize to Aaron Williams.

Jarvis Landry should be sent to the locker room. That was intent to injure on Aaron Williams. I am so damn heated.

Jarvis Landry, throw him out …. total cheap shot.

Landry went over and apologized as noted, but the Bills wouldn’t make it easy on him the rest of the day.
Rest assured the league will have a fine at Landry’s doorstep soon.
