As someone who felt Myles' punishment was appropriate, it is baffling how the same league and media has swept Donald's helmet smashing rampage under the rug.The NFL buried that Aaron Donald story quickly.

It's not surprising, but it is at the same time.
There were major pundits/talking heads literally saying Myles should've been arrested for assault and put in jail and/or thrown out of the league. Donald does something even more extreme in practice against another team and no one really cares, with the justification for that opinion is that Garrett did it on national TV. Amazing.
This shouldnt be surprising at all. We all know the NFL is about optics, not actual actions. If you dont make them look bad, they could care less what you do. If you make them look bad, be prepared for the helmet, er hammer, to come down hard on you. Doing something at practice, without sponsors spending money, limited cameras, and fewer fan eyes, they can ignore what Donald did very easily.
Could take Carolina out of the Denzel Mims/Darius Slayton "sweepstakes" if you want to call it that.
I think he's going to be the primary backup to CMC. Put Shenault in a Deebo role and utilize his skillset to the fullest.
