Missed Pass-Interference Before Chiefs Interception Prompts On-Air Criticism on Monday Night Football

Broadcasters said Jaden Hicks’ contact on Parker Washington should have drawn a flag before Trent McDuffie’s pick that set up Kansas City’s tying touchdown.

Overview

  • With Jacksonville leading 21-14 and backed up, Trevor Lawrence’s pass was intercepted by Trent McDuffie after uncalled contact on the intended receiver.
  • ESPN rules analyst Russell York called the non-call a "big miss" and said it should have been ruled pass interference.
  • Play-by-play voice Joe Buck described the officiating on the sequence as "a huge, huge miss" during the broadcast.
  • Kansas City capitalized on the turnover with a Kareem Hunt touchdown to level the game at 21-21.
  • Earlier, the Jaguars returned a Patrick Mahomes interception 99 yards for a touchdown, and there has been no indication of an overturn or league statement on the disputed play.
