| 8th November, 2006 - 12:28 pm |  Sacramento Bee - The Raiders say that tape shows Jerramy Stevens tried to hit Tyler Brayton in the groin first, before Brayton very obviously retaliated.
"He initiated it, and Tyler reacted," Raiders coach Art Shell said. "You tell your guys not to react to things like that, but in that situation you understand.
"Tyler was reacting to someone trying to kick him in the groin area," Shell said, who added he hopes Brayton's punishment is limited to a fine. "Sometimes when there's pushing and shoving, you might not react. But when that happens, guys will react, and he did."
"He's a dirty, dirty player, and I knew he was," Stuart Schweigert said of Stevens. " ... (Stevens) got up right away talking trash, all that stuff, got in my face and tried to head-butt me (in the second quarter). And he got a personal foul then. And I just knew he was a guy you could expect that from." [READ] |
