I know that guy,” Joyner told reporters after the game. “I grew up across the railroad tracks from him. My mom knows his mom. My dad knows him mom. I would never intentionally do a dirty play like that on Teddy Bridgewater. It was a bam-bam play. . . . I did not know he was gonna slide. When I launched, he slid, and we connected. If I could take it back, personally, I will take it back. Because I’m not a dirty player. And I wouldn’t want to take joy from his mom or from his team. So was it [done] intentionally? Not at all. So I can’t fix the problem with what’s going on, how they feel. But how I feel inside, it’s not good.”
