I’ve watched this multiple times since yesterday AM and am finding it pretty hard to simply toss it in the “freak accident” bucket. I’d have thought it inconceivable to ever suspect a player would do something like that intentionally, but the overall body motion there is just so bizarre. Some have suggested he was merely trying to oversell the clip he received from the other player, which may be true, and I doubt the true intent was to slash Johnson’s neck and kill him, but at best it seems remarkably negligent.

I wonder what comes of this. What does a police investigation in to something like that even look like? I suppose manslaughter’s not outside the realm of possibility given there will never be any way to truly get at the “intent” in a play like that, but yeesh. What an awful situation.
