Jeffrey Gunter nearly rips Malik Willis’ head off with dirty facemask
Stop me if you’ve heard this before: Jeffrey Gunter made a dirty play during a football game.
Liberty had the ball at their 41 leading 7-0 over Coastal Carolina in the FBC Mortgage Cure Bowl on Saturday in Orlando, Fla. Liberty quarterback Malik Willis took a snap from shotgun and rushed to his left for a first down. Gunter chased him down and grabbed Willis by the facemask, twisting it all the way around so that Willis’ helmet came off.
Not often the facemask includes a full 360 from the runner https://t.co/wJHa79jjMw pic.twitter.com/R5N5FDLOXc

Gunter was called for a facemask penalty on the play.
You may recall that Gunter is the same guy who committed this dirty play on BYU’s Zach Wilson.
Willis ended up rushing for a touchdown on the possession, so he wound up fine. But this is just another example of Gunter going too far on the field.
