Tyrann Mathieu defends his late hit on Kendall Hunter
Today the Arizona defense did a great job through most of the game, but as the Niners started to pull away from the Cards, tempers flared.
On a run by Kendall Hunter which resulted in a touchdown, Tyrann Mathieu made a play that had many jump out their seats.
That hit looked like a belly to back suplex in wrestling. The tackle was dirty but “The HoneyBadger” defends his tackle.
@Mathieu_Era: I was not trying to make a dirty play on KH32 touchdown .. Honestly I didn’t hear the whistle
Either way, it looked wrong and the NFL will probably fine him. He needs to play smarter.
