Yahoo Sports • • sports
Key Points:
- NFL line judge Jeff Seeman was caught on camera making an unkind remark towards Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride during a game against the New York Giants, prompting laughs from McBride once he noticed the cameras.
- The NFL Players Association executive director JC Tretter condemned Seeman's behavior, urging the NFL to hold officials to the same accountability standards as players and shared video of the incident on social media.
- The NFL confirmed it is investigating the incident following the public outcry and Tretter's comments.
- The exchange occurred after officials declined to call pass interference on a key third-down play involving McBride, which contributed to the Cardinals trailing late in the game; the Giants eventually won 36-24.
- McBride did not comment on the official’s remarks during postgame interviews, and the topic was absent from postgame reports.
