Dan Carpenter Hits Himself In Face After Slamming Helmet On Ground

Buffalo Bills kicker Dan Carpenter deals with a windy stadium usually in Ralph Wilson Stadium during Bills home games. Yesterday in their season finale against the New York Jets, the wind picked up during the game to give both kickers a hard time when kicking PATs and field goals.

After a two-yard touchdown by running back Karlos Williams in the second quarter, Carpenter had a chance to give the Bills a 14-point lead. For the sixth time this season, he missed the extra point. When returning to the sideline, Carpenter went to slam his helmet on the ground in frustration. Still frustrated, he did not notice his helmet bouncing off the ground and it ended up striking him in the face.

Eventually, the Bills would go on to win the game with a 22-17 defeat on the Jets, knocking them out of playoff contention in the wild-card slot.
