Campbell Responds to Joseph Controversy 

Campbell spoke out about the play in question which involved safety Kerby Joseph tackling Rams tight end Tyler Higbee low, which ended up flipping  him in the air and led to his ACL tear.

Campbell said he didn’t believe the tackle was a dirty one. While some announcers have called for further scrutiny on tackles below the waist where a defending is flying in and ends up flipping the offensive player, Campbell had a blunt message for those who think Joseph’s hit was a ‘dirty’ one.
