Why did N'Keal Harry's touchdown not count for Patriots? Referee Jerome Boger explains

Jerome Boger's crew didn't just blow whistles during Sunday's Patriots-Chiefs game. They were also busy blowing calls - several of them.

The two most significant calls nullified what should have been Patriots touchdowns, both in the second half.

And even though quick whistles after a Travis Kelce took away a potential scoop-and-score away from Stephon Gilmore, the play you'll see over and over again as the latest example of bad NFL officiating was N'Keal Harry's touchdown-that-wasn't.

With the Patriots trailing 23-13 early in the fourth quarter, the rookie wideout caught a Tom Brady pass, broke a couple of tackles and leaped toward the pylon.
