re: OT for people with no skin in the game. Was the hit against Jaxson Smith Njiba legit

Ball carrier was not in a defenseless position. He was not clearly down or going down. Defensive player led with the arm/shoulder. Didn't lower the helmet. Didn't launch off of his feet.

Violent play for sure. Back of the neck is an awful place to get hit. But I think it was a reasonable football play and not a penalty. It's a violent sport.
