Grady Jarrett still in 'disbelief' over flagged Tom Brady hit

Atlanta Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett said he was in «not a little but a lot disbelief» at the roughing the passer flag thrown on him when he sacked Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady late in Sunday's 21-15 Buccaneers win over the Falcons.

Jarrett's comments, on his weekly appearance on 680 The Fan in Atlanta, were his first since postgame Sunday, when he said he was too emotional about the flag and the outcome to speak clearly about what had happened.

Even days later, he's not sure what he was supposed to do differently. «Just looking back on it, I'm still kind of left clueless,» Jarrett said. «On what I'm expected to do in that situation.» Jarrett had wrapped Brady up and then rolled to the ground, bringing Brady down with him.

Jarrett made contact with the ground first and then turned over, finishing the sack. Referee Jerome Boger called the penalty and, in a pool report after the game, said Jarrett «unnecessarily» threw Brady to the ground.
