NFL looking into official apparently cursing at Cards TE McBride
Developing
In Short: The NFL is investigating an incident involving an official allegedly cursing at Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride during Sunday's game against the New York Giants.
According to ESPN, line judge Jeff Seeman was caught on camera apparently using profanity directed at McBride near the end of the game.
The incident occurred with just under five minutes left in the game, following a play where officials did not call a penalty on New York's Dru Phillips for contact with McBride before the ball arrived.
Former NFL player and current ESPN analyst Nick Bosa said, 'This kind of behavior from an official towards a player is unacceptable.'
The NFL has stated that it expects to hold officials to the same standards as players, indicating a serious review of the incident.
