Here’s what one NFL coach said to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini on Azeez Al-Shaair’s hit against Trevor Lawrence.

Sources say the league initially wanted to suspend Al-Shaair for four games before deciding on three. The hit took place with more than four minutes left in the second quarter, and Al-Shaair was ejected for the remainder of the game. That was effectively a three-and-a-half game suspension for the linebacker, with three games of it being unpaid.
