but the way you describe it is how I remember it.
For the sake of argument let's assume he didn't 'hit' Carr but grabbed him, low... as the rule reads that is an infraction? If so... how would that apply to a tackle in which the tackler slides downward ending up pulling the lower leg... or the famous 'shoe string tackle'? To be legal now do tacklers have to release a tackle should they slide below the waist? - JamesJM
I saw him go helmet first into the legs. He didn't intend to do that, that wasn't the plan, he was just pushing to make a play after being tripped.
But it doesn't matter. In this world, that's going to get called anyway.
