Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Daquan Jones sparked controversy by criticizing NFL officials for their inconsistent penalty calls. His comments targeted a crucial holding penalty against the Pittsburgh Steelers that nullified a touchdown in their Christmas Day showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The matchup pitted the AFC powerhouse Chiefs, chasing the conference's No. 1 seed, against a Steelers squad battling in the AFC North race. This historic contest marked the NFL's first-ever broadcast on Netflix.
The game-changing penalty occurred when Steelers tight end Darnell Washington was flagged for holding. It erased what would have been a crucial TD run by Jaylen Warren. The sequence proved costly as Russell Wilson threw an interception on the next play.
