Denver Broncos safety Kareem Jackson is reportedly facing possible discipline from the NFL for a contentious hit on Minnesota Vikings quarterback Joshua Dobbs. Known for his aggressive approach on the field, Jackson wasn’t penalized during the game for the helmet-first hit. The incident occurred merely three plays into Jackson’s first game following his return from a previous suspension, adding scrutiny to the evaluation.

The hit on Dobbs is currently being reviewed by the NFL, which has raised the possibility of a hefty fine or even another suspension for Jackson. This has been confirmed by a trusted NFL source to 9NEWS, indicating the severity of the scrutiny. The controversial hit occurred during the opening series of the Denver Broncos’ Sunday night game. At the beginning of the match, Dobbs fumbled the football leading to its recovery by the Denver defense. The NFL’s rigorous review process is expected to lead to a clear decision regarding Jackson’s potential discipline. Whether this turns into a suspension, fine, or no penalty at all remains to be seen.
