Yannick Ngakoue: "you goin have to come harder than some weak racist slurs."

It wasn't pretty, but the Jacksonville Jaguars managed a 10-3 victory over the Buffalo Bills yesterday, advancing to the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs where they'll take on the Pittsburgh Steelers. 

After the game, Jaguars defensive end Yannick Ngakoue took to twitter to call out Buffalo's #64, offensive lineman Richie Incognito, for using racial slurs during the course of the game.

Ngakoue tweeted, "Great win to day! And 64, you goin have to come harder than some weak racist slurs. I’m proud of my African heritage, as are 70% of the other Black players in this league.#Iaintjonathanmartin!"

The #IaintJonathanMartin hashtag is in reference to the former Dolphins offensive lineman who accused Incognito of bullying him during his stint in Miami, which resulted in Incognito's eight-game suspension at the end of the 2013 season. The 34-year old lineman missed an entire season in 2014 but has made three straight Pro Bowls, including this year, since signing with the Buffalo Bills in 2015.

In wake of Ngakoue's allegations, Bills lineman Dion Dawkins came to Incognito's defense with a tweet of his own which reads, "Just for the world to know, everyone always tryna put some bad thing on @68INCOGNITO i was next to my guy the entire game and the entire season and believe me, if he was saying some racist stuff I would have been the first to let him know that was out of line. Cut The BS."
