Daniel Jones injury


Oct 10, 2021, 5:52 PM

So Jones gets drilled on the goaline. Jones is walking back to the huddle and starts to stagger. Clearly concussed - pretty severe looking. 1 player for Dallas is just pointing him to the sideline like telling him he’s got to go out. That would be a former LSU player. Meanwhile another Dallas player darts across from behind him and across the LOS in an obvious attempt to try to catch Jones so he doesn’t go down. That player - Jayron Kearse, Clemson. No surprise between the difference reactions.

Yeah but Kearse quit during the 2015 Natty game. No denying that.

Clemson doesn't care about basketball....as evidenced by Brown-L getting 14 years.

CORRECTION: Kearse quit midway through the 2015 Season. It was obvious!

Targeting. No doubt that would have been called targeting in the NCAA. But, watch the replay. It is Jones who ducks his head. It is Jones crown of the helmet that makes contact with the helmet of the defender. No way was Jones "targeting" the defender. He was just doing an instinctive maneuver for self-protection. But "doing an intentional movement for self protection" is not in the rule book as an exception to targeting.

According to the NCAA rule, Jones was guilty of targeting.

But, the NCAA never calls it on the offensive player.

That is my single biggest problem with the targeting rule.

And, lastly, he could be a poster child for the reason for targeting. How many times have we heard "It is to protect the player from injuring himself." Well, there is proof. Jones lowered his head. Jopnes hit an opponent with the crown of his helmet. Jones got concussed.

It was actually called on a offensive player in a game

Saturday, I forget which one. Called on a downfield blocker!

Was it ND? I had the sound off on the iPad

And saw a ND player (88) get thrown out. I thought the number seemed off for a defensive player.
