Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel tried to look cool when it happened.
But even the coolest coach in the NFL couldn't hide the pain that he felt when a sideline spill went a little too far.
Footage revealed a Las Vegas Raiders player tumbling into McDaniel after a tackle.
The Dolphins coach attempted to avoid the pending collision but McDaniel ran out of time and space on the sideline.
"I had to act like it didn't hurt," McDaniel said. "It hurt like a motherf***** and I got hit in the d***."
He was also kicked in the shoulder during the play, which was part of a recent 20-13 home victory over the Raiders.

"I swear, I feel like I'm going to puke right now," McDaniel said.
He eventually shook off the hit during the Dolphins' win.
McDaniel was later shown laughing with a Miami player and embracing his status as the hippest head coach in the NFL.
The Dolphins have thrived under McDaniel's unique leadership in 2023.
