NFL Upholds Damontae Kazee's Suspension, Eligible for Postseason Return

Steelers' safety to miss rest of regular season following hit on Colts' receiver Michael Pittman Jr.

Damontae Kazee, safety for the Pittsburgh Steelers, will miss the rest of the regular season after his suspension appeal was denied.
Kazee was suspended for his hit on Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr., which resulted in a concussion for Pittman.
Despite the upheld suspension, Kazee will be allowed to return to action if the Steelers make the postseason.
Kazee's suspension took into account both the nature of his hit and his history as a repeat offender, having been fined for illegal hits this season.
Kazee's suspension has sparked debate about player safety rules and the difficulty of enforcing them.
