edjr 5,564 Posted February 12, 2020 https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28685713/nfl-reinstates-browns-myles-garrett-suspension Quote The NFL reinstated Myles Garrett on Wednesday, two days after the Cleveland Browns' star defensive end met with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Garrett was suspended indefinitely after ripping the helmet off Mason Rudolph and hitting the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback in the head with it on Nov. 14. Was a given. No way it spilled into 2020 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the suspension would be the same... but the outrage from the media and the left would be substantially different. They'd want Bosa arrested and charged with a hate crime and kicked out of the league permanently. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, why am I not surprised? At least now we know the penalty for beating someone over their unprotected head with a helmet is 6 games and smoking weed is 8 games. It all makes sense to me.

MDC 5,891 Posted February 16, 2020 Garrett got what amounted to a 6-game suspension. I think he should’ve gotten 10-12 games minimum. First 4 of this year would’ve been appropriate. The league should also dock him a game or two for repeating the racial slur thing. It’s possible Mason Rudolph said it but it’s unprovable and Miles reinstatement should have been contingent on never publicly addressing it again. Clown show Browns.
