The NFL’s standards regarding the safety of people and good old-fashioned fun in a game continue to amaze with its ridiculousness. Two crucial contrasting “incidents” highlighted these poor standards from the Detroit Lions’ humbling beatdown of the Green Bay Packers in Week 18.
First, you had the Lions’ Jamaal Williams, a guy who clearly enjoys his time as a pro athlete, suggestively thrusting his hips after scoring two crucial touchdowns — including the game-winner — in Detroit’s emphatic 20-16 Week 18 win. Then, there was the Packers’ Quay Walker inexplicably pushing a medical trainer who was simply trying to do their job and help someone.
