Unsurprising. Very dirty hit. I am a fan of the way Aziz plays he was great with the 49ers but that hit was ridiculous and uncalled for.
Not only was it just a terrible hit but he did it while wearing "Free Palestine" cleats.... people are pisssssed in HTX over that

Did he get fined for the cleats? I get why the NFL doesn't want to delve into political stuff but they also put BLM in the end zones at one point so I think its a bit of do as I say and not what I do.
Bosa got his fine for his Trump hat and didn't care and I am sure Aziz won't either. I think the Free Palestine thing is a lot like the BLM thing. As a principle wanting freedom and equality for everyone is a good thing but a lot of times these basic principles get coopted by grifters and people who want power and control.

I haven't seen anything about him being fined for them but here is a picture he shared of them

I don't think that is bad. It just says free and lists the stats. Not like he put "from the river to the sea" on the cleats. He might get fined but I think the hit is a bigger deal than the cleats.

Oh for sure the hit is but gotta remember this guy plays for a team in Texas... Owners are also known to be old rich conservative white guys so this is not a good look esp. given who the fans also are for the sport.
