Frustrations boiled over for the New York Jets in the fourth quarter Friday to a point a referee was bloodied.

After an extra point made the Miami Dolphins' lead 27-6, there was some pushing and shoving between the teams.

As a referee attempted to break things up, Jets defensive lineman Micheal Clemons extended an arm, and his open hand struck the face of the ref, who later spit blood.
