I thought the injury was related more to the horse collar and the targeting finishing move. Maybe the sec should fine for that instead

By the definition of the rule, sure. They accomplish the same thing though. Whether you get pulled down by the inside of your shoulder pads or the back of your jersey, same thing happens.

While it was not technically a horsecollar, the angle of the pulldown and the effor of threadwell to score caused an injury similar to a horsecollar. However, I do not think it should have been a flag since he grabbed the jersey in mid back and not the region of the horsecollar. Just a horrible injury, though.

I went back to watch the play (wasn't sober on Saturday). You're right, that wasn't a horse collar. The targeting is awfully close though. He did lead with the shoulder, but the way he went in for the kill shot could've been interpreted as targeting
