26CornerBlitz Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) NFL SUSPENDS GRONK ONE GAME FOR DIRTY HIT ON WHITE Quote The NFL has suspended Rob Gronkowski one game for his dirty after the whistle hit on Tre'Davious White that left the cornerback in the concussion protocol. Edited December 5, 2017 by 26CornerBlitz
PatsFanNH Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 Seems light, but he will not fight it as missing the Phins game isn't as bad as missing the Steelers game. (He should have gotten 2 games.)
aceman_16 Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 As he should be... NOW to hope Tre can olay vs indy and he is healthy! 1
Wayne Arnold Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 If Tre misses more than one game then it wasn't enough. 2
mannc Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 Pathetic. We’ll have to rely on street justice, but I’m not holding my breath. 2
Johnny Hammersticks Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 Expected, but disappointed. What sort of precedent is the NFL setting here? One game suspension for CLEARLY attempting to injure a defenseless player....AFTER THE WHISTLE!?! If I did that to someone at the supermarket, I’d be going to jail and likely subject to a huge lawsuit. Complete bull ****. 6
Jerry Jabber Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) Should have been longer. The NFL preaches "player safety" but only give a Gronkowski a one game suspension for delivering a vicious, intentional hit to the back of White's head. Edited December 4, 2017 by Jerry Jabber 1
Perk71 Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 They did the right thing and suspended him. Hope Tre gets well soon.

Guffalo Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 Just now, Jerry Jabber said: Should have been longer. Should have been 2-3 if they really care about concussions. I hope they are just as lenient if it were to happen to Brady in a few weeks. 2
26CornerBlitz Posted December 4, 2017 Author Posted December 4, 2017 Pretty light for a deliberate and dirty hit on a defenseless opponent that resulted in injury after the play was over.
mannc Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 (edited) And he’s appealing. Wonder if he will drop the appeal right before the Bills game, to avoid any retaliation. Nah, why would he be afraid of anyone on this team? Edited December 4, 2017 by mannc
thebandit27 Posted December 4, 2017 Posted December 4, 2017 After hearing his appeal, Thrash or Brooks should increase his suspension to 3 games for having the audacity to appeal. That was a total scumbag play. 4

It wouldn't be, they would launch a full scale investigation and state it was a planned out attack and fine and suspend the player and your coach and take multiple draft picks. Just ask the Saints..
