Jags' Arik Armstead penalized for helmet-to-helmet hit on Joe Burrow

Jacksonville

Jaguars defensive tackle Arik Armstead was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct for a late hit on Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow late in the first quarter of their NFL Week 4 meeting at Paycor Stadium.

"You get that helmet-to-helmet contact, and you're gonna get called for that every time," analyst Robert Turbin said of Armstead's hit.

"Boy, Joe Burrow really took a hit on that one," play-by-play announcer Tom McCarthy said.

The penalty nullified an interception by the Jaguars' Travis Hunter.

Armstead was in on the hit that injured Burrow's toe in last season's Week 2 meeting between the teams.
