After the New York Jets claimed a surprising 27-10 victory against the Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday, cornerback Sauce Gardner poked fun at fans and the team by wearing a cheesehead on the field postgame.

But one Green Bay player apparently didn’t take too kindly to the lighthearted troll attempt. As Gardner made his way back to the locker room, a Packers player ran up next to him and tapped the prop off his head before jogging off.

It’s unclear who the Packers player was, but NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero speculated in his tweet that it was receiver Allen Lazard. Whatever the case, it’s clear frustrations are rising in Green Bay as the Packers fell to 3-3 with Sunday’s loss.

The Jets defense was stout, sacking Aaron Rodgers four times and holding the Packers to just three yards per carry. They also forced two fumbles from Rodgers and returned a blocked punt for a touchdown in the third quarter. Gardner led the Jets with two passes defended to go along with three tackles in the win.
