Al-Shaair's punishment highlights ongoing issues surrounding player safety in the NFL, following a violation that resulted in a serious hit to Trevor Lawrence.
Jon Runyan emphasized that Al-Shaair's hit was unacceptable, stating, 'You led with your forearm and helmet and delivered a forceful blow to the head/neck area of your opponent.'
Houston GM Nick Caserio criticized the league's inconsistency in disciplinary actions, arguing, 'I'd say in this situation, quite frankly, there's no consistency at all relative to the level of discipline that's been handed down.'
