Redskins safety Brandon Meriweather has been suspended two games without pay for repeated violations the the NFL's safety rules prohibiting hits to the head, the league announced Monday.
The decision by NFL Vice President of Football Operations Merton Hanks comes a day after Meriweather was flagged twice for illegal hits to the head of Bears' receivers Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery.
Marshall, one of the league's most physically imposing wideouts, said Meriweather needed an extended break from the game.
“Guys like that really don't understand that there is life after football,” Marshall said, via the Chicago Tribune. “I respect the league trying to better our game and guys like that, maybe he needs to get suspended or taken out of the game completely. I understand. I get it. I was one of those guys. I played defense growing up. I was a headhunter. Even sometimes on the offensive side, I played that way. But with rules in place, you've gotta respect it.

Does it again, it should be for the rest of the season.

First one was questionable IMO...second one was a TPOS move.

Remember his head shot on Heap a few years ago when he was still with New England?
He's easily the biggest tpos in the league in my eyes. If he hasn't figured it out by now, he never will.
