Fans were outraged during the Minnesota Vikings and Tennessee Titans game after Titans safety Mike Brown was called for a hit on wide receiver Jordan Addison.
Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold threw to Addison in the end zone. There were about three quarterbacks around Addison in the game. Brown leaned over his shoulder and appeared to hit Addison right in the chest to break up the game.
The hit knocked the ball loose, and it appeared Minnesota turned the ball over on downs. But Brown was punished with unnecessary harshness. Tennessee was also penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct. Darnold scored on the next play to make it 13-3.
