Sauce Gardner Alleges Officiating Double Standard After Jets Fall to 0-4

His public critique of officials could prompt league discipline.

Overview

  • Following a 27-21 loss to the Dolphins, Gardner said officials call more penalties on him and the Jets because they are not winning.
  • He was flagged for a third‑quarter defensive pass interference that preceded a Miami touchdown during a game in which New York drew 13 penalties for 101 yards to Miami’s six for 40.
  • Postgame coverage notes his remarks about bias may lead to a fine from the NFL, which typically penalizes public criticism of officiating.
  • Gardner also allowed a Darren Waller fourth‑down touchdown and finished with two tackles in the defeat.
  • Larry Brown Sports reported that some of the Jets’ infractions appeared to be mental mistakes and discipline issues, not solely officiating decisions.
