FWIW, this will cost Garrett at least $1,139,912, according to Spotrac.

Maybe he won’t assault a man’s skull with a helmet next time a tiny QB runs his mouth at him and tries to mess with him. 

Garrett ain’t got no one to blame but Garrett on that one

y'all realize helmets are designed to lessen the impact of blows to the head, right?

Yeah, which is why it comical when dudes punch players wearing helmets....only thing they risk hurting is their own hands. 

and the reason football players wear helmets....is because strikes to your bear brains is super dangerous.  Super duper dangerous when super strong athletes are the ones getting a shot at the dome.

I was pointing it out for the comedic value, Captain Obvious.

Look at it when Garrett takes him down. He clearly grabs at his helmet and tryst to pull it. Then he gets mad and reaches for it again when Garrett is being held. 

Oh I saw that the first time around, I'm just not sure why any impartial observer would equate reaching for the helmet/facemask of a guy refusing to get off of you after the play is over with swinging a helmet at someone's head as a weapon or consider it anything noteworthy or out of the ordinary in an on field scrap. From my point of view Rudolph's actions are he unsuccessfully attempts to take Myles Garrett's helmet off. That's it. 

In what way shape or form does that in and of itself merit any sort of severe punishment? Unquestionably the proper response by Garrett, even if you consider Rudolph's actions poor, would be to walk away. You just took a guy to the ground after he got rid of the ball. Perhaps an understandable mistake, but you know what? Once he's reaching for your helmet with both hands, you know what you can't claim anymore? That you think he had the ball. Yet Garret continues to drag Rudolph down and then retaliates by grabbing his facemask, yanking Rudolph around by it, taking the helmet off and then hitting him with it.

Which of these two actions is highly unusual, potentially criminal and risks serious injury to someone? Not Rudolph's. Hence the punishments as meted out.

Mason is taller than Garrett. He’s also only 30 to 40 lbs lighter. He’s not some damsel in distress

He probably tried to rip Garrett's helmet off bc he was in the backfield so much. Either way, he's not dead so I'll laugh at him for rushing a guy bigger than him and getting popped with his own helmet. It's weird folks can't see the hilarity in this situation.
