The Detroit Lions have a reputation for undisciplined play and Dominic Raiola is a big part of that problem.
On Sunday, Raiola was caught stomping on the legs of Bears defensive lineman Ego Ferguson. It certainly looked like Raiola did it on purpose as well.

Ferguson had to limp off the field after the play.
And while the incident could (possibly) be an accident, Raiola has a track record of playing dirty. Earlier this season, Raiola admitted that he took a couple of cheap shots against the New England Patriots. The Lions didn’t discipline him then but they may want to think about doing so now since it’s pretty apparent that Raiola isn’t going to change his style of “play” anytime soon.
