Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was entrenched in a battle against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday and fans watching the game thought an official missed a blatant penalty during the game.

Allen dropped back to pass on 2nd-and-goal from the Eagles’ three-yard line. Eagles linebacker Haason Reddick was in pursuit and dragged Allen to the ground. The replay showed that Reddick appeared to take Allen down from the back of his jersey. He also ripped the front of Allen’s jersey.
