Houston Texans linebacker Denzel Perryman has a bone to pick with the NFL after they slapped him with a three-game suspension for violating the playing rules during last Sunday’s tilt. Per NFL insider Ian Rapoport, Perryman is set to appeal his suspension on Wednesday.

The linebacker got hit with his seventh career use of helmet foul in his team’s 30-27 win over the Cincinnati Bengal in Week 10. Per a letter by the NFL to Perryman, the second-level defender violated the playing rules intended to protect the health and safety of players.

NFL and Roger Goodell: Emphasising Player Safety in 2023

The NFL continues to hand out fines and suspensions in the name of player safety. Denver Broncos safety Kareem Jackson served a suspension earlier this season for a hit on a defenseless receiver. Jackson had received fines for violating the playing rules intended to protect the health and safety of players multiple times before his eventual suspension. Jackson appealed, and the league reduced his suspension from four to two games.

The NFL has also had a quick trigger finger in dishing out hefty fines. Las Vegas Raiders RB Josh Jacobs, Minnesota Vikings RB Cam Akers, and Atlanta Falcons safety Jessie Bates, among others, received heavy financial penalties earlier this month for “impermissible use of the helmet.” Denzel Perryman has received fines north of $300,000 for the same indictment.
