Walker then got in Walden's face, and the pair started jawing back and forth, at which point Walden reared his head back and headbutted Walker. The Titans tight end then appeared to throw a punch in retaliation. You head-butt me in the face because I am beating you? I whupped on him the whole game, and I'm going to whup on him again in two weeks.
The referees called Walden for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty but did not throw him out of the game. He only hit him in the chin. If a player actually head butts somebody without a helmet on their skull then perhaps the punishment will be far more severe, as it should.
I love my colts, I bleed blue, however there is no room for that. Accept responsibility for your actions and move on and improve from it. That was the second one in a week. The first was when the Bucs safety headbutted a helmetless Miami player on Monday night. We have come to expect no less from the NFL. If headbutting with a helmet a helmet-less person only gets you one game suspension then the NFL can expect more of this type of behavior.
Walden will appeal it, ex-players will hold court and cut the suspension and implement a small fine. If the NFL wants to truly get serious about player safety then either do it or shut the hell up. At least with helmet-to-helmet hits during a play you can say heat of the moment, bang-bang play, etc. This was just disgusting. Ravens vs. Midseason awards: Who is MVP favorite?

Last Thanksgiving, Walden was arrested after a dispute with his live-in girlfriend and eventually pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor disorderly conduct-domestic abuse charge. During free agency, Walden's agent, David Rich , raised concern that Walden could be suspended.
His deal contained no signing bonus. After the arrest in November, Walden's play gradually went downhill. He finished with 60 tackles and three sacks, eventually getting benched in the playoffs against the New York Giants for Brad Jones. Now, he's fighting to stay on the roster. During training camp, undrafted rookie Dezman Moses has stood out while Jones has moved back to his outside linebacker position after a brief foray inside during organized team activities.
On Tuesday, Walden did see some snaps with the No. The Packers also have Vic So'oto at outside linebacker. Full go: In college at Texas, Jermichael Finley suffered a concussion. He remembers how that felt and it was a lot different than this. The Packers tight end isn't sure if the head injury he suffered Thursday was - by definition - a concussion.
