NFL suspends two officials After player confrontations

Oct 5

ABC reports the NFL suspended line judge Jeff Seeman for two games after footage appeared to show him swearing at Cardinals tight end Trey McBride during Sunday's loss to the Giants, following McBride's complaint about a missed penalty involving Dru Phillips. Referee Adrian Hill received a one-game suspension for unprofessional conduct during Dolphins–Vikings after yelling at Eric Wilson, who collided with him and tried to help him up; another official separated them. Rhiannon Ally says this disciplinary action is extremely rare and it is unclear whether either official will appeal.
