WATCH: Former Clemson DB slams into goalpost

Tony Crumpton · Assoc. Editor · Monday, August 07 2017

Former Clemson defensive back Crezdon Butler is playing the Canadian Football League for the Saskatchewan Roughriders.

The Roughriders fell to the BC Lions 30-15 on Saturday night and Butler got a rude awakening about the differences between the NFL and the CFL.

Butler ran into the goalpost in the second quarter as the wide receiver Bryan Burnham ran him near the goalpost and scored on the play.

Why in the world are the goalposts still in the middle of the CFL's end zones? I know there is a different strategy involved but slamming into a goalpost is brutal. Anyways, check out the video below.
