Rex Ryan: Staying on own side in pregame warmups is 'unwritten thing'

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills defensive backs Nickell Robey-Coleman and Stephon Gilmore made headlines Wednesday when they said they would retaliate Sunday if a New England Patriots player ran through their pregame warmups.

Rex Ryan said Wednesday there is "zero focus" on "extracurricular things" like the pregame scuffle that erupted Oct. 2 when Bills players felt "disrespected" by quarterback Jacoby Brissett running through defensive backs' warmups and Bills safety Robert Blanton began a shoving match.

However, Ryan suggested Thursday that Brissett might have crossed a line that day.

"It's no big deal. It's kind of an unwritten thing in the NFL," Ryan said.
