Social media reacts to horrible roughing the passer penalty on the Commanders

One of the worst calls you’ll ever see.

Washington Commanders rookie defensive end K.J. Henry is playing in his first career NFL game on Sunday against the New England Patriots. On the Patriots’ first possession in the third quarter, Henry made his presence felt, sacking New England quarterback Mac Jones on third-and-10 and forcing the fumble.

The Commanders recover, and it’s Washington’s football around midfield.

Wait, there’s a flag.

Amazingly, the officials called roughing the passer on Henry, giving the Patriots the football back and a first down — in field-goal range.

Judge for yourself:

Needless to say, Twitter — or X — did not like the call.

Here are some of the best reactions.
