Oakland Raiders punter Marquette King opened some eyes with a cryptic tweet on Twitter Tuesday night.

"No one should quit during a regular season game...," King posted.

While King did not point the finger at any one player, it's possible that the person(s) in question wore a silver and black jersey. Coach Jack Del Rio was fired on Sunday after the Raiders limped to a 6-10 mark.

King's next post did not shed light on the matter, however, as he posted that he "woke up thinking bout Michael Jackson today."

The 29-year-old King is hardly shy on social media, most notably zinging Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce about his reality show in December 2016.

King was voted to the Pro Bowl for the second straight season last month.
