Eli Apple on Mac Jones’ account of the play that cost him $13,367:

“He had a bullshit explanation. He knew what he was doing. He had his eye on my knee and he was trying to dive at it. You can tell. I’ve never had that happen before with a QB. I’ve never even seen it before.”

I’m still not sure he really had a problem with it though since he’s not blowing up twitter about it… :ninja:

These guys could give 2 shits if a QB laid down in front of them.

Ok boomer.

Those jackets are pretty badass though.

They said Mac Jones thought this ball was still in play after everyone had gotten up and it was signaled Bengals ball…yeah Mac Jones is a dirty player. #RuleTheJungle pic.twitter.com/Nr87z1yyc5

I didn't see if anyone had posted this but I just came across it. Looks like Mac Jones probably wasn't the one to cause BJ Hill to stumble but came in after.

Hill was trying to get out of the pile and as he was trying to stand up, Jones dove and hit him, trying to knock the ball out. It was long after the play was dead.

I wasn't suggesting the play wasn't dirty. I just thought from the previous angles I saw that Mac must have tripped him up. I think Jones more than anything is just being stupid and continuing to try and make plays way after the play. Things like that could cause injury though and should be taking seriously.
