Play of the Week: A "Hairy" Tackle
Kate Kelly |
Tuesday, November 29, 2011 I thought it was a girl-thing to pull hair…
In case you were wondering - that was a totally legit tackle; the hair is considered part of the uniform and can be legally (NFL laws) grabbed if it is sticking out from under the helmet. Torrey Smith says he considered cutting off his dreads after the play, but decided against it because his grandma likes them. Atta boy Torrey! We like the dreads too. And way to hold on to that football, if someone grabbed my hair like that I would have turned around and slapped them in the face, er, helmet.
