He didn't launch himself, he didn't drive his helmet at JuJu, or a forearm.
At the end of the day, it's still football and football is a violent contact sport. Shit happens sometimes.

that collision was shoulder to shoulder then helmet to helmet. The rule states "forcibly hitting the defenseless player’s head or neck area with the helmet, facemask, forearm, or shoulder, even if the initial contact is lower than the player’s neck"
Period end of discussion it was a 15 yard penalty
