Darius said he's seen players stay in the game for hits worse than his.
"It was not intentional, I was just trying to make a play," he said. "I've done that in the past when I know I couldn't get an interception, I swung up, trying to get the ball. That's a technique."
Darius said he would appeal any fine the league hands down. |
This was one of the dirtiest plays I've ever seen. The fact that Darius is totally remorseless only makes it worse.
