If it’s like the KC penalty it has nothing to do with away from the ball and more to do with blindside. If it’s true that the NFL isn’t suspending him, then he probably didn’t even do that. I only saw it live and the one replay so I’m not sure exactly what it looked like, but that was most likely what the ref thought he saw.

Also would anybody be saying anything if instead of Burfict hitting him, the guy had thrown a block on Vontaze? Of course not.
