Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed a touchdown pass to Jordy Nelson to even up the score against Washington, and he managed to do it despite getting dragged around by his facemask.
Aaron Rodgers threw a TD despite getting jerked around by his facemask
We don’t know how he completed this pass, but he did.
Jeanna Kelley has been covering the Falcons for The Falcoholic since 2011 and the NFL for SB Nation since 2015.
The facemask grab was committed by safety Su’a Cravens, who was flagged for roughing the passer, but Rodgers steps into the throw and completes it anyway.
Officials ruled the play a touchdown, though with the uncertainty of what is and is not a catch in the NFL, this one raised some questions.
Nelson does pull in the ball and appears to control the catch before the ball is stripped by cornerback Josh Norman.
Officials did review the play and upheld the touchdown ruling, and the Packers are all tied up with Washington 7-7.
