Jamal Adams’ return to the Seahawks defense ended after just nine snaps on Monday night and the three-time Pro Bowler was understandably frustrated.
However, the league office is now reportedly looking into disciplinary action for how Adams treated the independent concussion doctor on the sidelines after being told he couldn’t return to the field.

“1. Player gets a HEAD injury. 2. He’s woozy enough to need help getting off the field. 3. He is examined and deemed unfit to continue playing because… his BRAIN. 4. NFL wants to discipline him for actions taken moments after his brain was injured. … Do I have that right?” asked Brian Nemhauser.

“Not to defend Jamal Adams, but he was passionate and wanted to get back on the field and probably said ‘mean words’ to the guy,” another person tweeted. “Mac Jones routinely tries to injure opposing players and grab their cocks and gets 0 discipline.”
