Miami Dolphins tight end Jonnu Smith risked the wrath of the Bills mafia after calling Buffalo “the worst place in the world.”
The 28-year-old, a third-round draft pick in 2017, played for the Titans, Patriots and Falcons before joining the Dolphins.
Smith is familiar with the trips to Highmark Stadium, having played for the Patriots and now the Dolphins, two of the Bills’ AFC East rivals.
During a performance at ‘The Dive Bar Podcast‘, the tight end took aim at the city of Buffalo and even the local cuisine.
“If you go to Buffalo from across the country, it has to be the worst place in the world,” Smith said.

The Bills’ home ballpark can be an unforgiving place for players, given the harsh winter weather
“And Buffalo wings aren’t even good. They’re not even good. Yeah, I’m with Buffalo. I’m with them. I throw all kinds of shots at Buffalo.”
Smith can expect an icy reception when the Miami Dolphins visit Highmark Stadium in week nine of the 2024 NFL season.
The Bills’ home can be an unforgiving place for players, given the harsh winter weather. In January, Buffalo’s wild-card game against the Steelers had to be rescheduled due to a snowstorm.
Fans were paid $20 an hour — and given a free breakfast — to help clean the stadium after Orchard Park was hit with 17 inches (43 centimeters) of snow.
