Browns QB Deshaun Watson will probably receive a call from the league office on Tuesday.
On Monday night, Watson got heated with Steelers’ Kwon Alexander after running towards the sideline on a scramble play.

While going back and forth with Alexander, Watson shoved a ref to the side to continue arguing.

Usually, making contact with an official is an automatic ejection in the NFL, but for whatever reason, Watson was not ejected on the play and was allowed to stay in the game.
Deshaun Watson made contact with official. Should be ejected.

Fans were furious at the refs for not ejecting Watson for making contact with a ref.
How is Deshaun Watson not ejected for contact with a ref?

Can Deshaun Watson just shove refs now??

Deshaun Watson making contact with anyone should be illegal, and ejected from the free world…. I’m just saying https://t.co/cOKdsnwNjh

The NFL will surely look into making contact with the ref, and he can probably expect a hefty fine on Tuesday.
