The letter he received and the suspension for Unnecessary Roughness going to the head or neck of a defensless receiver. Which is clearly not the case.
I guess we'll see. The video shows he didn't go helmet to helmet with a defenseless receiver. So if you're right, they will have to reverse the penalty, and as I said I will stand corrected.
But, if he does incur any type of suspension, then I was correct, there is obviously more to it than just where he hit the receiver.
