"Don’t need to go into specifics, obviously, but when a man’s ability to reproduce is being in question and there’s some other extracurriculars, guys’ hands need to be at their sides," the quarterback said, via Boston.com. "Let’s just say that. When that happens, you can get pretty riled up.

"I don’t know if I’ve ever been that fired up on the football field."

Judon said he wasn’t sure what Wentz was fussing about in the moment.

"So, I’m more worried about this team and where we’re going and how we started the year not winning these games against these kinds of teams, and now we’ve won two out of three against the Bills, lost to Tampa and now beat this team. Feel good about that, but we still got to get better."
