Cleveland Browns defensive end Myles Garrett shouldn't have been called for roughing the passer in the second quarter of Sunday's 21-21 tie with the Pittsburgh Steelers, the NFL's senior vice president for officiating said Monday.
Garrettt wrapped up Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for a third-down incompletion and was called for a personal foul. On the next play, Steelers running back James Conner ran in for a touchdown and a 6-0 Steelers lead.
Al Riveron, the NFL's senior vice president of officiating, told NFL.com that the official erred in calling the penalty on Garrett.
