Is Slayton's head too small for his helmet? Every game I see a helmet roll on the ground and it's Slayton's. Anyone else notice this???

And the chinstrap is still buckled too. Some guys like them loose fitting.

well on todays it got ripped off...no face mask call, you cant grab under the helmet and bring a man down by it...but ofcourse it was missed just like a lot of their no calls today...go figure.

..very "Marion Barberlike" save for the braids. That is what makes it compelling.

I noticed this as well. Maybe it has to due with his size. He is smaller than the defensive backs and often they might tackle him and get a piece of the helmet. Better the helmet come off than your head.

He is so small enough that the refs won't see it when the opposing team's defense goes for tackles. It sucks but such is life and thankfully he hasn't been hurt.

It would help if Green or another RB was able to take some of those carries.

I was wondering this too, he has it ripped off at least once a game. Looks to me like he only snaps one of the straps, the equipment manager needs to work on his helmet for sure.

Woow things are so bad we are having a heavily discussed head too small on Slayton topic! Are we starving for anything to talk about or what?
