Earl Thomas under fire for illegal hit that concussed Mason Rudolph
Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY SportsFormer Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas is in the headlines for a nasty roughing the passer penalty that injured Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph.
In the 3rd quarter of Pittsburgh’s home game against the Baltimore Ravens, Rudolph threw a pass on the run and was rendered unconscious after Thomas hit him helmet to helmet. This video may be uncomfortable to watch, but here’s what transpired.
This Mason Rudolph hit is insane. He’s knocked out before he even hits the ground. How is Earl Thomas still in the game? #BALvsPIT pic.twitter.com/PuDuPopxJc
