The NFL’s newest addition to the challenge system has been the inclusion of pass interference.
It was a controversial change, and in the first preseason game, the Bengals found themselves on the short end of the stick of pass interference challenges several times. It has been a different story so far against Washington.
The Bengals actually won a challenge that erased a highlight play from counting. Late in the fourth quarter, Washington launched a pass deep down the left side of the field. It looked like rookie cornerback Jordan Brown was in perfect position to pick off the underthrown pass, but an unreal effort by the wide receiver resulted in him taking the ball away.
