If somebody lays a cheap shot, they will be fined, possibly suspended, so I don't think its that likely.

He still has a big uphill battle before he even makes the team, so its not something I'm going to worry about today.

Dolphins player tweeted "Horrible" about the kiss. Club took swift action; player has also apologized. Yes, the NFL will pay attention.

The players and coaches can be made to behave.

The fans... not so easily.

My question was if he was going to get into any fights after tackling guys and having those guys react negatively. What happens after each time he tackles a guy? Are some guys going to take swings at him? Are some guys going to say they are worried that he is trying to hit on them, or feel them up?
