Fans rip Bengals' Jordan Battle for giving free scouting report on Malik Willis before Dolphins matchup

Jordan Battle is a good football player.

A good poker player? Probably not.

The Cincinnati Bengals safety revealed to the world — and, more importantly, the Miami Dolphins — that the team had identified a tell in Malik Willis' throwing motion before the Bengals face the Dolphins on Sunday.

Not only did Battle reveal that the Bengals had identified a tell, but he also told reporters exactly what it was.

"He has a little slight little tap before every throw though, so I feel like we could use that as a key to break on the ball.

He likes to tap the ball before he throws it, or he takes his hand off, and that that gives the read the break," Battle told reporters Thursday.

While Miami head coach Jeff Hafley downplayed Battle's comments, saying many quarterbacks tap the ball before throwing, he was happy to hear about the observation .

"It’s a timing and rhythm thing with a lot of guys, and there’s a lot of them that do that, but any opponent that wants to share our tendencies with us, we’ll take any time," Hafley told reporters Friday.

Fans torched Battle on social media for his mishap.
