Damn, NFL got one right.

Oakland Raiders linebacker Vontaze Burfict has been suspended for the rest of the 2019 season for his helmet-to-helmet hit Sunday on Indianapolis Colts tight end Jack Doyle, the league announced.

Burfict was ejected in the second quarter of Sunday's 31-24 win for the Raiders. He was initially flagged for hitting Doyle in the head across the middle. But after the officials conferred, Burfict was thrown out.

The 29-year-old Burfict received 13 suspensions and fines in seven seasons with the Cincinnati Bengalsbefore signing with the Raiders as a free agent this offseason. Two of the suspensions were for illegal hits, totaling six games.

This is Burfict's first season with the Raiders, and he was named a team captain.

"It's a tough decision, it's a tough call. I think it was a flag," Raiders coach Jon Gruden said Sunday. "It was very well-documented that the league was going to review those plays this year in New York City. So, that's what happened and I'll wait to hear what their reasoning was. But it was a penalty, he went in there with his head down, it was called and, unfortunately for us, it was an ejection."

Rejoice! Dude's a P.O.S. and there's a line between playing "with bad intentions" and playing with bad intentions. I don't see how other NFL players accept this dude when he's consistently done reckless shit just to hurt people. Apparently he was voted a captain? FOH.


I was just explaining about that Burfict dick head yesterday to a lady who wasn't familiar with him (nor did she care) and I was saying that I didn't know how was even still in The League.

Good riddance to that fucker!

Of course he'll get the fine reduced to 6 games or 8 games at the most, but fuck him. He has always been a cheap shot piece of shit.
