Indianapolis Colts punter Pat McAfee is known both for his sense of humor and his social media prowess. So it wasn't surprising when he took to Twitter to weigh in on the $96M deal quarterback Ryan Tannehill signed with Miami Dolphins.

The Colts, you see, have a quarterback from the 2012 NFL Draft class of their own in Andrew Luck, one who is also due for a new contract. McAfee tried to put Tannehill's deal in perspective.

Well today's market showed that a 25-25 record gets you 96 million American dollars... Andrew's about to own a team I think #Tannehill #Luck

It should be noted that Tannehill's career record is actually two games under .500, but nonetheless, McAfee's barb didn't sit well with some Dolphins fans. The punter then tried to clarify things on Wednesday.

McAfee will have a firsthand opportunity to see if Tannehill is worth all that money when the Colts visit the Dolphins December 27.
