I agree that Garrett's conduct was unexcusable and it is right for him to be suspended for the rest of the season. [More is not warranted, and probably not allowed under the CBA].
=============
HOWEVER, there were other actions by the league. Rudolph said that he didn't do anything to provoke the incident. ??? Apparently, after being tackled, Rudolph mouthed a racial slur. He then tried to remove Garrett's helmet. Also, as I recall, when he got up, he toward Garrett, continuing the incident.
IMO, if Garrett didn't retaliate (wrongfully), Rudolph would have been suspended. Why wan't he?
