“A suspension for the rest of the season, I think, is a little bit too much. I don’t even think he should have been suspended at all,” he said. “From the angle of it, the guy led with his shoulder.

I mean, what else is he supposed to do? The guy’s laying out for a catch, how else are you supposed to attack the opposing guy that’s catching the ball as a defender?

“That play was a football play,” Gronkowski continued. “There’s no other outcome that could have happened there.

The defender made a play on how the defender should have made the play. He led with his shoulder, as well. He didn’t lead with his head. … And on top of it, Gardner Minshew did throw a bad ball. … So, Tom is right.

And I would never argue with Tom on these situations because Tom is the best quarterback of all time. … That was a clean hit. It was. What was wrong with it? What else could the defender have done?”

Brady, who made his opinion known under SportsCenter’s Instagram comment section, called for better play from the quarterbacks so they don’t put their teammates in danger.

“QBs needs to read coverages and throw the ball to the right places and defenders should aim for the right hitting areas,” Brady wrote. “Need better QB play!! It’s not OK QBs to get your WRs hit because of your bad decisions!”

Brady’s been critical of the NFL this year, calling it “more like flag football” due to some penalties getting called now that wouldn’t have been called 10 years ago.

Kazee — who’s been fined five times this season by the NFL — originally was suspended for the entire regular season and the playoffs, a decision he appealed. The appeals officer upheld the regular-season suspension Wednesday, but Kazee is now eligible to return for the postseason should the Steelers make it.
