Cheap shot in my opinion.




Blocking begins whenever the ball is in play no matter where you are on the field. On kickoffs it begins 10 yards from the tee and 50 yards downfield from the returner. You can think it was a cheapshot if you want but Murray stood in one spot until the ball was picked and then tried to run to the side of the field it was being returned on and he got took out. Nothing cheap about it.


When the ball is picked Murray goes from a QB to a defender.
