NFL Looking Into Patriots QB Tom Brady's Slide Vs Ravens

The NFL is looking into Tom Brady's leg-up slide that hit Ravens safety Ed Reed in the AFC championship game.

League spokesman Greg Aiello says ''any play of that nature is routinely reviewed.''

Brady could be subject to a fine if the league believes he violated any player safety rules.

During the final minute of the first half, Brady slid to the ground to end of an impromptu run, the quarterback's upraised leg hit the onrushing Reed, who temporarily limped away, but Reed was not injured.

Ravens safety Bernard Pollard has said Brady should be disciplined by the NFL, which levies fines on defensive players for helmet-to-helmet hits.

Waste of time.

 

Agreed. The NFL's not going to do anything about it.

 

Just on that picture alone something should be done...

 

I'm an admitted Brady fanboy, and even I think he should be fined. That was dirty.

 

it's pretty similar to the Suh kick and i think Suh got fined from what i recall. not sure how the league could get away with NOT fining him.

 

He's a QB. They can't be fined.

 

brady has been fined by the league

 

$10,000. $10,000 for a slide and intent to injure an opposing player. Frank Gore fined $10,500 because his socks fell down in the middle of a Championship game...maybe he was a little busy...???

 

Thought about this slide as the patent Brady Slide...

 

is that really him? :rofl:

 

Yeah...you've never seen it before?

 

He looks like a sissy in that picture! word came down the other day,he got fined by the league for that leg up slide.

 

Tom Brady = Cobra Kai
