NFL Found A 2nd Illegal Helmet-To-Helmet Hit By Vontaze Burfict Against The Colts

Vontaze Burfict has a steep hole to dig out of.

The Oakland Raiders linebacker has already been suspended for the remaining 12 games of the season due to his helmet-to-helmet hit on Colts tight end Jack Doyle, but apparently he had another one during that game.

Despite playing only 16 snaps Sunday, Burfict received a letter this week informing him of an additional helmet-to-helmet hit against the Colts. The league is expected to include that evidence against during his appeal, which is slated to be heard on Tuesday.

Source: The NFL informed #Raiders LB Vontaze Burfict in a letter this week that it found another helmet-to-helmet hit from the same game against the #Colts. They are including that in his already mounting situation.

The fact that they found a second hit supports their case that he is a repeat offender.

Burfict has cost himself over $5M in eight years.
