Falcons’ Bosher OK, Quinn asks NFL to review hit

Falcons coach Dan Quin said the team sent the NFL video of the questionable hit that knocked punter Matt Bosher out of Thursday’s exhibition game at Cleveland.

Bosher was covering a punt several yards behind the play when Browns linebacker Tank Carder blindsided him with a hit. Bosher left the game with what the Falcons said was a chest injury.

Referees did not call a penalty on the play.

“We’d like to ask the league their opinion on if it was a defenseless hit or not,” Quinn said Friday. “We sent it in. The main thing is Bosher is OK.
