Danny Amendola Will Appeal If Fined For Clean Hit

Amendola was flagged for unnecessary roughness on the play, but said after the game he would appeal if fined for what he considered a good play.

“I’ll appeal if I’m getting fined, but I thought it was a clean hit,” Amendola said, via NESN.com.

“We’re coached to do that,” Amendola added. “It’s a big play if I block that guy and the ball bounces in the end zone. We get the ball on the 20-yard line, so it’s a big play in the game, big play for field position.”
