Jerks, say

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reacts

'jerks say' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for reacts that I've seen before include "Responds to an impulse" , "Responds to stimulus (6)" , "Acts in response to something" , "Retaliates" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
