I’m not sure why I’m justifying this with a response when everyone else is ignoring it (justifiably). This is a joke, right? The hands have to go into the helmet to be eye gouging. Branch just grabs the top of the helmet and lets go when the guy clearly isn’t getting to the ball. Worse stuff happens all the time in the scramble for fumbles; he just reacted by grabbing the 1st part of the guy available to keep him from the ball. Probably could have been flagged for 15 yds, but a suspension; give me a break!
