Cottrell reduced Washington Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather's suspension for repeated hits to the head from two games to one, a league source told NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport on Wednesday. Following the Bears' Week 7 loss in which Meriweather was flagged twice for launching his helmet into the head and neck area of defenseless receivers, Marshall called out the noted head-hunter while Bennett expressed a desire to punch him in the face.

So, launching yourself into WRs and RBs heads causing a helment to helment hit is "just playing football"? Ummm, I think not... Meriweather has a long history of dirty play. I bet if Brandon Meriweather's last name was SUH, the suspension would not have been reduced. I thought 2 games was a slap on the wrist to begin with but it's an absolute joke this clown had his suspension reduced.
