“There might be death threats,” Clowney said in the victorious locker room afterward, while also opining that the locals who fill up Lincoln Financial Field are the “worst fans in the world.”
Clowney said he was the target of such intimidation last year, when he was still a member of the Texans. Houston lost a Week 16 game in Philadelphia 32-30 after then-Eagles quarterback Nick Foles led a game-winning field-goal drive on the day’s final possession — despite missing one play after Clowney forced him to the sideline on a late hit that brought a roughing the passer flag.
Nobody agrees with death threats, but if you don’t think the hit on Wentz was dirty, you’re out of your mind. Even if you claim the helmet-to-helmet contact was incidental, Clowney unnecessarily hits Wentz as he was going down by contact.
The hit was completely unnecessary. Wentz was clearly going to the ground after a Seahawks player tripped him up. Clowney had plenty of time to not hit him and did so anyway. It’s a dirty play.
