NFL official Sarah Thomas was knocked down, but couldn’t be knocked out of Saturday’s game.
Thomas was hit hard in the fourth quarter of the Green Bay Packers-Minnesota Vikings game on the sideline at the end of a tackle, and went back to the locker room with an injury. She returned for the final moments of the game, however.
Thomas actually bounced right up after Packers safety Morgan Burnett tackled Vikings tight end Kyle Rudolph out of bounds. It appeared Thomas might have hit her head on the turf, but a Vikings trainer also seemed to be examining her hand.
