Was Vyncint Smith surprised that they reversed the call in the final minute and called defensive pass interference?
No. Smith, who was a part of several big plays in this game, said he expected it to be overturned. The Jets were lucky the replay official, Al Riveron, did change the call on the field and rule it pass interference on Nik Needham.
The Jets were out of timeouts and would have been facing 4th-and-18 from Miami’s 46 instead of first down from the 38.
“He came up on me and grabbed my right arm,” Smith said.
