The Seattle Seahawks defeated the Green Bay Packers 14-12 on a controversial final-play touchdown, the first game directly decided by the National Football League’s replacement officials.
With the Seahawks trailing 12-7 on a fourth-down play from the Packers’ 24-yard line, quarterback Russell Wilson lofted a pass into the end zone that was grabbed by Green Bay’s M.D. Jennings. As the Packers safety brought the ball to his chest, Seahawks receiver Golden Tate reached in and grabbed a hold of the ball as both players fell to the ground.
