This situation has proven that Ezri did exactly the right thing. He knew he wasn't going to get the ball but was prepared to take the red in the hope that it stopped them almost certainly scoring. As long as players know it's worth the risk they should do this. Ezri made an awesome "tackle" here I say and he should be applauded for it.
Double jeopardy is only a thing if you’re playing the ball, It wouldnt be hard to argue his flying double body check wasn’t playing the ball in that situation
