It would appear that IK Enemkpali is up to his old tricks. The Buffalo Bills defensive end reportedly took some swings at teammate, offensive tackle Cyrus Kouandjio, during Thursday’s practice.
Coincidentally, this marks the one-year anniversary mark that Enemkpali sucker-punched New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith during a locker room argument.
Exactly one year ago today, IK Enempkali punched Geno Smith in the jaw. He took a swing at Kouandjio in practice tonight. #Bills

The punch Enemkpali landed on Smith was so hard that it broke Smith’s jaw. Smith was sidelined a couple months while he healed and lost his starting job to Ryan Fitzpatrick.
Perhaps some mandated anger management should be in order for Enemkpali, who apparently cannot keep his hands to himself.
Or, maybe head coach Rex Ryan doesn’t care. Some teams encourage a little rough and tumble among their players. And Ryan had said when he started coaching the Bills in 2015 that he wanted to “build a bully.”
