Redskins cornerback DeAngelo Hall is imploring commissioner Roger Goodell to look into the actions of the Atlanta Falcons coaching staff after a bit of a donnybrook broke out on their sidelines Sunday.
After the Redskins’ LaRon Landry’s late hit on Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan, Hall says several players and coach Jeff Fish surrounded him, trying “to get some licks in.” Hall also claims head coach Mike Smith verbally threatened him during all the madness.
After that, coach Smith came over to me, talking (expletive) to me, saying they were going to kick my (butt), Hall said, via the AP. I stay in Atlanta during the offseason, so if Mike Smith wants to see me, he can definitely find me.
Smith claims he was trying to restore order in a “hectic” hodegpodge of maroon and black helmets.
Hall played for the Falcons from 2004-2007.
