Browns QB Colt McCoy Doesn't Think James Harrison's Hit Was A Cheap Shot

During a Week 14 game last December, Browns quarterback Colt McCoy was leveled by Steelers linebacker James Harrison. The collision led to a one-game suspension for Harrison, and it was the last game of the season for McCoy, who suffered a concussion. He says he still doesn't remember what happened. But during a Friday appearance on The Dan Patrick Show, McCoy also wasn't of the opinion that Harrison's hit was a cheap shot. “No, I don't think so," he said via the Akron Beacon Journal. “In all the rules, I'm outside the pocket, I'm trying to make a play. I've seen the hit. I've watched it. Again, I don't remember it, so I don't know.” Patrick also asked McCoy if he still has any effects from the hit. “At this point, I feel great," he said. "Last year, I don't think there was really a good reason to go back in and play. I never felt good enough. I didn't pass enough tests to be able to go back and play the rest of the year. Since I've recovered from that, I have not had or experienced any symptoms. I feel really healthy. My body feels about as good as it's felt in a long time. And so, no, I feel completely recovered from it.”

He should have told his dad to shut up when the press put a mic to his face. That more than anything got him in hot water with the team. Was it a vicious hit? Yeah. Was it dirty? Borderline IMO.
