Former Clemson safety and current Dallas Cowboys starter Jayron Kearse was hit with an unnecessary roughness call in the Cowboys’ brutal 31-10 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night.
From my perspective, the call was poor, and it seems Kearse feels very much the same. It was 2nd and 19 for the Bills, and they tested Kearse down the left side of the field. Kearse made a play, and the ball flew over the Bills wide receiver’s head, but the NFL officials quickly pulled out their flags and made an unnecessary roughness call.
Following this clearly poor call, Kearse took to social media to call out NFL officials. Let us know what you think. Playing football is getting a lot more difficult for defenders.
Didn’t lower head/shoulder, didn’t make contact with crown of my helmet. What am I supposed to do @NFLOfficiating pic.twitter.com/qFQp4Vvebt
