Jaguars DE Chris Clemons responds to reporter's criticism on Twitter

Jacksonville Jaguars defensive end Chris Clemons was involved in a Twitter dispute with Florida Times-Union reporter Ryan O‘Halloran Sunday.

The Jaguars’ season ended with a 30–6 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 17. Clemons recorded no tackles, then apparently had harsh words for O’Halloran after the game.

O’Halloran started the exchange on Twitter by publishing a quote from the post-game locker room, alleging Clemons insulted him with a vulgar term.

O’Halloran then alleged Clemons described the media as racist.

Clemons also called Jax media as a whole racist and unwilling to talk to African-American players ... as I was talking to Davon House

The tweets prompted Clemons to respond.

Then O’Halloran continued the exchange.

I disagree. You were yelling that stuff as I was talking to Davon. https://t.co/1JYYQuryfd

@chrisclemons91 that's where I would specifically disagree. i complimented your signing two years ago, thought Branch would have a big 2015.

@chrisclemons91 if anything, some fans criticize me for saying the Jaguars glass is half full and progress is being made.
