The NFL is reviewing a situation in which an official appeared to use profanity toward Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride, Adam Schefter reported. NFL Players Association executive director JC Tretter called for the league to hold the official accountable.
Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter): The NFL said it is reviewing the situation in which an official appears to use profanity at Cardinals TE Trey McBride. The NFLPA Executive Director JC Tretter called for the NFL to hold the official accountable.
The league's review was reported after the apparent exchange, and the NFLPA's response makes accountability the central issue raised publicly so far. Schefter's report does not identify the official or describe a league finding.
No discipline or outcome from the review has been announced in the report. The league is still examining the incident, so the facts beyond the reported appearance of profanity and Tretter's call for accountability remain unresolved.
Any next step depends on the league's review. Until it provides a conclusion, the incident remains under review rather than a resolved disciplinary matter.
