For those unaware, the latest development in the Jets’ ongoing meltdown occurred Wednesday, when fourth-string quarterback Greg McElroy blasted the team for its “selfish” and “corrupt” locker room.
One day later, and the saga continued on. This time, a former Jets QB fired back at his fellow signal-caller.
Erik Ainge, who last played with the Jets in 2010, called out McElroy on Thursday, saying he’s an “entitled brat” for publicly airing more of Gang Green’s dirty laundry.
“Someone tell McElroy to keep his mouth shut about the NYJ “Locker Room” speaking in the media about your teammates, entitled brat!” Ainge tweeted.
