Dallas Cowboys defensive end Greg Hardy has been a topic of conversation this week.

Immediately following the Deadspin leak, many people were calling for the Cowboys to part ways with him and/or the NFL to suspend him.

Still, he suited up for the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football and was matched up against Eagles LT Lane Johnson for much of the night. Johnson, a right tackle, started on the left side for the first time in his NFL career.

Hardy got some pressure and was credited for a sack on the night, but did not have an impact like the Cowboys would have liked. Or, enough of an impact to keep a domestic woman abuser on your roster. Rather, it was Johnson who primarily held Hardy in check.

After the wild win, Johnson was asked by the media about his night defending Hardy. That's when Johnson decided to throw some shade towards Hardy's way:


Johsnon should get bonus points for keeping his trash talk between the lines. Leave the personal insults to a quick Twitter search of Hardy.
