INGLEWOOD, Calif. -- After drawing an unnecessary roughness call for defending quarterback Justin Herbert following a hit in Sunday's 26-8 win over the New Orleans Saints, center Bradley Bozeman was celebrated by teammates and awarded a game ball by coach Jim Harbaugh.
Saints defensive tackle Nathan Shepherd twisted Herbert's right ankle and pulled down the QB long after he had thrown the ball to running back J.K. Dobbins in the second quarter. Bozeman, the only lineman who saw the interaction, sprinted, pushed Shepherd off of Herbert, and continued pushing Shepherd into the ground before Herbert and an official separated them.
