LANDOVER, Md. (AP) ? Washington Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather knows he's probably going to get fined by the NFL after being flagged for two helmet-to-helmet hits against the Chicago Bears.
"I feel like every hit that I took (today) was a legit hit," he said. "I wasn't trying to be dirty. I wasn't trying to hurt nobody. I didn't lead with my, didn't launch with my head. I used my shoulder like they told me to do."
"It's one of those things where you want them to be aggressive,Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping, but get lower," Shanahan said. "Mainly just talking from the team's standpoint,Cheap NFL Jerseys, not even talking about the possible injury or possible fines or things that go with it, we have to eliminate those 15-yard penalties."
