The fallout from the touchdown-turned-fumble in Sunday’s Jets-Patriots game continued on Monday.

NFL VP of officiating Al Riveron defended the overturned call in the fourth quarter that changed an Austin Seferian-Jenkins touchdown into a fumble that gave the Patriots the ball at the 20.

Riveron, on a conference call with reporters, explained that Seferian-Jenkins did not regain possession of the ball as he crossed the goal line. He also said there was enough video evidence to overturn the call.

“No doubt about it,” said Riveron, who made the overturn from New York on Sunday.
