Four days later, there is still some doubt about the frightening hit Deshazor Everett laid on Darren Sproles during Washington’s 27-22 victory over the Eagles Sunday.
Was it just bad timing? Or bad timing with bad intentions?
"I didn’t see him fair catch the ball,’’ Everett said in the Redskins' locker room after the game, and Wednesday that continued to be the party line in Washington. A report from the Washington Post, citing league sources, said a fine was imminent but not a suspension for the hit, which concussed Sproles and ended his day. He was still in the NFL’s concussion protocol Wednesday and not available to discuss the hit.
