Casher was in such a position that “letting go” of the foot would have put all of his weight on Fajardo’s foot, in fact, the position is such that casher has to be careful getting up. He appears to be trying to be careful, when Fajardo tries to roll off of his back.
Might Fajardo have been in pain from the position both players ended up in? Sure, it looks pretty awkward, but there’s nothing wrong with how Casher tackled him.
