The NFL got dragged for years for ignoring player safety. When the league went the other way and instituted plenty of new rules to protect player safety, there was bound to be some negative consequences.
The New England Patriots felt that on Sunday, when a blindside block that looked totally legal — and on a player close to making a tackle — wiped out a punt return touchdown and cost the Patriots the lead.
The Patriots had an apparent 82-yard punt return toucdhown by Gunner Olszewski, but was called back due to a blindside block on Anfernee Jennings.
