Tom Brady slams Colts QB instead of Damontae Kazee for brutal hit on Michael Pittman Jr... despite Steelers safety being suspended for the remainder of the season over tackle

Tom Brady has offered an alternative take on the decision to suspend Pittsburgh Steelers safety Damontae Kazee - instead suggesting he wasn't to blame for his big hit on Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. Kazee has been suspended by the NFL for the remainder of the season after he was ejected during the Steelers' loss against the Colts for unnecessary roughness Sunday after the hit on Pittman Jr. Tom Brady has offered an alternative take on the decision to suspend Pittsburgh Steelers safety Damontae Kazee Kazee was suspended for the rest of the season for delivering a massive hit to Michael Pittman But Brady defended Kazee and said quarterbacks should be the ones penalized for big hits Pittman dove out in an attempt to make a catch before flying into Kazee's shoulder head-on 'Coaches need to coach better, QBs needs to read coverages and throw the ball to the right places and defenders should aim for the right hitting areas. Kazee was suspended a day after being ejected from the Steelers 30-13 loss to Colts after delivering a big hit that knocked Pittman out of the game when the WR dived to attempt a catch. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin also criticized the suspension and rules blaming defenders Brady made similar comments back in 2021 that the onus should be on QB's to protect WR's Brady's comments were also similar to ones he made back in 2021 that it was on quarterbacks to protect their wide receivers rather than on defenders to protect the offensive players.
