2023.12 MIA-NYJ | Umpire spitting blood after breaking up fight

A double ejection was assessed during the commercial break, so the enforcement changed from what penalties were announced. The replay command center added a disqualification foul on Miami tackle Austin Jackson which offset the personal foul by the Jets. The foul for contacting an official by Jets lineman Micheal Clemons is not part of the offset; it is enforced separately because it is an infraction against an official.
Umpire Carl Paganelli was hit in the face attempting to break up the post-play scuffle. There are no "accidents" considered here; it is an automatic ejection.

Clemens placed his hands on the ref's front and backside immediately after realizing what happened. Totally unintentional.

[@ltorres420]

Doesn’t matter intentionally or unintentionally. You put a hand a ref, you gone! You probably don’t watch football huh?

It’s still funny how the jets got all of these prime time games because of Aaron Rodgers and he can’t even play.

[@cliffsanders6614]

Refs are not in the wrong place wrong time, players just act like children.

[@YEAH340]

And the refs have brains smaller than most children

[@LuisLonchoSerrano]

Oh my goodness! The umpire got a blood on his mouth! 😲

[@333ministries]

the media headlines made it appear as if is was a malicious assult. this is one of the reasons people do not trust them

[@amir4r803]

Bogus: it was totally unintentional

[@CUMBICA1970]

You better put some armour if you're gonna get into a gridiron pandemonium.

[@eliezerr111]

By far the most Jets moment, bloody umpire.

[@SanctuaryGardenLiving]

Got like 4 Jets players all grabbing and hitting Jackson's helmet... Dirty sore losers.

[@jasonlavake977]

Taking it to far

[@elvisp9811]

That's not blood, he drank some beet juice 😂😂😂

[@codygordon59]

Where is the sportsmanship and professionalism. No etiquette or professionalism. Then hitting the ref.

[@SMOKINJOE2898]

Who tf jumps into a pushing and shoving match with 8 300lb plus mofoer’s? A stupid referee who weighs 160lbs is gonna get his girly self hurt. Stay tf out of the way.😂

[@wrxsubaru02]

Can someone timestamp it where the official was hit? I must be blind.

[@jalen8912]

Never make that kind of contact with the referee because you’re gonna get fined

[@oldmanbacala5571]

He should get a 4 Game Suspension for that.

[@tombrady7616]

You're DELUSIONAL. It was totally unintentional 🤡

[@lucasgraham6565]

He gets threw out game

[@jrnumex9286]

went to a football game, a hockey match broke out.

[@tombrady7616]

This is BS.

[@user-jp4jn2lh5o]

Where the fuck is it? Yeah there is a ref spitting up blood at the end, but where is the hit by the player

[@trollwayy5981]

We seen it hit by the elbow pad

[@larrylipshitz9430]

That’s what you get for scripting games

[@calebmarek]

Saw the thumbnail and thought ohh noo not carl. I graduated high school with his daughter

[@bruceweiss3664]

So what a little bloody lip. Good thing he's not a hockey ref

[@rosamedelez-u8n]

[@jamesoxford2778]
