“That was a stupid move by him,” Avril said. “It took some discipline, for sure, not to chase him down and do something crazy. But we still got the yards [from the penalty], so it was a positive for us, I guess.” Hekker will likely be fined by the NFL this week, a rarity for a punter but a justifiable move by the league in this case. So Hekker was penalized for the hit? It did look like it could be penalized. And it's funny that he could be fined for it.

I would have loved for Hekker to grab one of them by the facemask, bring them in close, yell "GIVE ME BACK MY SHIRT", and then pushed him away.

Bennett seems to really have a burr under the saddle about this. I understand sticking up for your QB, etc., but I think that chasing after the punter because he knocked into a linebacker was a little excessive...although, I guess that you do have to establish parameters and boundaries for such position players like the punters as they could literally get wiped out nearly every time they are on the field in a blocking scenario.
Hekker probably should have just done what he was supposed to do and let Avril be, but Avril took care of his own shit. Bennett didn't need to jump up and play big brother to Avril after the fact, especially to a punter whose already gone to the fetal position. All in all, no harm done and will probably stand as an example to punters across the league. |

Because it was a savage and vicious push in the shoulder. Cliff Avril might never recover from such a beating.
Actually, they fine Hekker because they don't want dumb ass punters getting annhilated every time they are on the field. The league makes an example of him to make sure that punters don't get targeted unnecessarily. You make sure that punters don't do that type of shit ever. |

I haven't seen someone avoid being hit in a such a manner since the last time Peyton fell down to avoid a hit.

They're not blocks of granite. They're people, and in this case he was jogging and completely unprepared.
I'm not an NFL-sized guy but I could probably get most non-linemen to the ground if threw myself into them completely blind-sided. |
