League supports referees’ decision not to eject 49ers’ Williams
In a game between the San Francisco 49ers and New York Giants, Niners left tackle Trent Williams was involved in a scuffle with Giants defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson. Williams appeared to throw a punch at Robinson, but officials did not see conclusive evidence that it was a closed-fist punch. NFL senior vice president of officiating Walt Anderson explained that the punch did not meet the standard to warrant an ejection. Williams stated that he doesn’t expect to be fined for the incident, referring to it as a “love tap.”
