Watch: Packers' Jaire Alexander does the 'Griddy' in Justin Jefferson's face
Cornerback Jaire Alexnder had a lot to say about wideout Justin Jefferson leading up to Sunday's meeting between rivals the Green Bay Packers and Minnesota Vikings. For one play, at least, Alexander backed up his smack talk.
Midway through the first quarter, Alexander broke up a pass intended for Jefferson before doing "The Griddy" in the star's face.
Alexander's taunts may be getting to Jefferson, who showed some visible frustration later in the first half.
With six minutes left in the second quarter, Packers' safety Adrian Amos picked off a Kirk Cousins pass intended for Jefferson.
After being shoved by Alexander from behind during the return, Jefferson aggressively pulled off his helmet, nearly hitting an official with it.
Alexander ruffled feathers earlier this week, calling Jefferson's nine catches for 184 yards and two touchdowns against Green Bay in Week 1 a "fluke."
"You've just got to be real: He don't jump in no super suit and get dressed and jump outside, you hear me?" Alexander said. "I don't either, sometimes. But he [is] human, is what I'm saying. We ain't putting too much on nobody."
While the Packers built a 27-3 halftime lead over the Vikings, Alexander and Green Bay's secondary got the better of Jefferson, holding three-time Pro Bowler to zero catches in the first half.
