There’s no way to have indisputable evidence that someone is truly not hurt. It’s literally impossible.


When a player is standing upright looking at the sideline for the call and then just lays down, it should be flagged.

You can't prove a guy that never got up isn't hurt but the one the Ole Miss did to us near the goal line was as cut and dry of a fake injury stall tactic as there is.

I agree that they will never implement a penalty for it but the player that "goes down" should definitely be out the remainder of the drive.

Same for the DL who was not "hurt" near the LOS on an LSU play...but was suddenly hurt after running 60 yards to the new LOS after a big gain by LSU.

No question. If any player (except the QB) causes a stoppage of play because of injury that player should not be allowed to re-enter the game for the remainder of the series.
