Filed under: AZ Cardinals, Jets, NFL Injuries, NFL VideoEric Smith destroyed Anquan Boldin in yesterday’s Cardinals/Jets game to the point that Boldin had to be taken off the field on a stretcher. It was a cheap shot — helmet to helmet, natch — which you will see if you wait for the replay to slow down.
The problems with this hit are astounding. First of all, what the hell was Ken Wisenhunt thinking here, having Boldin in during a blowout? More importantly though, what the hell was Smith thinking, throwing a helmet-to-helmet shot on Boldin during a blowout? It was a completely unnecessary injury and unfortunate that it had to happen.
On the bright side, Boldin is “alert” and moving his extremities, but still, totally unnecessary on a number of counts.
