Arizona Cardinals offensive lineman Justin Pugh passionately defended kicker Matt Ammendola after the team’s 20-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday.

Ammendola missed the potential game-tying kick in the final seconds of the game. He had nailed a 20-yard field goal in the second quarter to cut the team’s deficit to just four points.

Pugh, who is in his 10th season in the NFL and fifth with the Cardinals, wasn’t about to let Ammendola get bombarded with criticism as the team fell to 2-3 on the year. He addressed the media with Ammendola standing next to him at his locker.

"It’s not one f---ing guy. Everyone’s waiting around on one f---ing guy to come back here? This ain’t f---ing ain’t right. It’s not right. It’s not one f---ing guy," Pugh told the media scrum in the locker room.

He then turned to Ammendola and said, "So just keep your f---ing head up."
