NFL Referee Caught on Camera Screaming 'F— You' at Cardinals' Trey McBride

The NFLPA called for accountability after a line judge was caught on camera cursing at McBride following a missed pass interference call.

  • The NFL is investigating an official caught on camera swearing at Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride during Sunday's 36-24 loss to the New York Giants, league spokesperson Brian McCarthy confirmed.
  • Tensions flared after officials missed a potential pass interference call on Giants defender Dru Phillips during a third-down play with under five minutes remaining, prompting McBride to voice his displeasure.
  • CBS Sports' Aditi Kinkhabwala noted that McBride was initially polite, using the word "please," before the official allegedly yelled "F--- you" twice as cameras captured the exchange.
  • NFL Players Association president JC Tretter wrote on social media that "This kind of behavior from an official towards a player is unacceptable," demanding the league hold officials to the same accountability standard as players.
  • Similar tensions emerged earlier when New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel received an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for using comparable language toward an official during the team's win over the Buffalo Bills.
