Must Read: “Kyle Williams, Concussions, And The Nature Of The Beast” - SBNation’s Andrew Sharp tells it how it is.
Jaquian Williams, the Giants cornerback who forced Williams’ second fumble, said afterward, “We knew he had four concussions, so that was our biggest thing, was to take him outta the game.”
So the Giants were purposely targeting Williams because of his concussion history? That makes me sick and almost turns me off of football completely.
As a sports fan that’s played football and many other contact sports, like many others, I’ve always maintained that one day, when I have kids, I’d love to submerge them into sports and cheer them on. But reading things like this scares the crap out of me. Human beings intentionally going after others in an attempt to injure them (and in this case, a very serious injury) in hopes of winning a game? Disgusting.
If you’re a football fan or a fan of sports in general or just a parent, read the entire article, it’s worth all of your time.
