That makes no sense.

Throughout his career, he's made a habit of playing to injure, or at the very least playing without caring if he injures others. He's been suspended a dozen times and fined more than that for unnecessary roughness, and at some point either you get it, you don't, or you don't care. Burfict doesn't seem to care, and actually seems to enjoy taking other players out of the game. This is nothing new for him. Back in college at ASU, he was a cheap-shot artist who hit guys late while targeting their heads and knees. He rarely (if ever) expresses remorse, and as we saw on Sunday, isn't above taunting the players he takes out while they're on the ground. Bottom line: there's intent to injure and an apparent joy in causing that injury. That makes him a danger to others and more than warrants sending him home for the rest of the year, if not the rest of time.
