Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones accused the New York Giants of faking injuries in the teams Week 1 matchup, and now one of the “fakers”, defensive tackle Cullen Jenkins, has taken a swipe back at Jones.

“Maybe he should get his son-in-law to clean his glasses a little better,” Jenkins told Dan Graziano of ESPN.com. Jenkins was referring to in-game video of Jones sitting in his suite getting his eyeglasses cleaned by his son-in-law. “I don’t know what he saw if he thinks I was faking.”

The NFL has since cleared the Giants of faking the injuries, saying they “found no basis for punishment.”

The Cowboys won the contest 36-31.
