Overview
- On Sunday night the Broncos benefitted from a defensive pass interference flag on Rams CB Josh Wallace that negated what appeared to be a game-sealing interception and led to Denver's 30-26 win.
- Broncos receiver Pat Bryant told CBS Colorado he "did sell it just enough" to draw the flag while also saying he felt a nudge from Wallace on the play.
- Rams coach Sean McVay said the NFL reviewed the sequence after the game and informed him the DPI call should not have been made.
- Under current NFL rules pass interference calls are not reviewable so the league can note the error for training but cannot change the game's result or overturn the penalty.
- The episode has intensified debate over subjective officiating and player gamesmanship and will likely shape internal officiating guidance and future training rather than produce any retroactive remedy.
