Have you heard of Carolina’s Dante Wesley? No? Neither have we. Are you watching the Tampa Bay-Carolina game? Uh, neither are we. Nevertheless, Carolina’s Wesley just got ejected after what sounds like a really mean hit.
From Football Outsiders:
Dante Wesley with one of the dirtiest hits you’ll see this lifetime in Tampa Bay on a prone Clifton Smith, waiting for a punt.
From Yahoo! Sports:
The hit from Carolina’s Dante Wesley on Tampa’s Clifton Smith is 1 of the dirtiest plays I’ve ever seen in the NFL. Automatic suspension.
From the Sporting News:
WOW dirty as hell hit by dante wesley. he deserves a beatdown. refs should’ve let the bucs have at him.
If these tweets are any indication, I can only assume that Dante Wesley took a baseball bat with him as he was covering that punt, and gave Mr. Smith the Inglourious Basterds treatment.
Halo? Mannn… F— a Halo!
UPDATE: Grainy video here.
