The Thursday Night Football matchup between the Minnesota Vikings and Los Angeles Rams ended with a bit of controversy. As the Vikings looked to rally

NFL official Tra Blake addressed the late-game controversy that arose Thursday night from a missed face-mask penalty in the Los Angeles Rams' 30–20 win over the Minnesota Vikings at SoFi Stadium. The Rams secured the victory when linebacker Byron Young sacked Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold in the end zone for a safety with 1:42 remaining.

After he was sacked for the game-sealing safety, Darnold immediately turned to the closest referee and lobbied for a facemask call. When the Amazon Prime broadcast showed the slow motion replay, it was obvious that Los Angeles linebacker Byron Young grabbed ahold of Darnold's facemask to bring him to the ground.
