Pryor celebrated after he knocked the ball loose and forced a fourth down. Miami quarterback Ryan Tannehill didn’t appreciate the reaction.

“I was worried about Rishard, but I heard some (teammates) talking about it on the sidelines,” Tannehill said, via ESPN. “That’s kind of a classless move to celebrate when a guy is injured. Obviously, it was a good hit, a clean hit. But to celebrate when a guy is down is a classless move.”
Pryor apparently saw Tannehill’s comments and responded on Twitter, saying he was simply celebrating the third-down stop. He also told the Dolphins quarterback to work on his passing skills; to not put his receivers in vulnerable spots to get hit.
Matthews suffered a rib injury and didn’t return to the game, which the Jets won 38-20.
