Donte Jackson Was Held On FG Block Attempt, Says Former NFL Ref

Fans of both the Pittsburgh Steelers and Washington Commanders likely left the Week 10 game feeling displeased with the officiating, as there were several questionable or missed calls that could have impacted the outcome. The Steelers nearly had their fifth consecutive week with a major special teams play on a would-be field goal block, but Donte Jackson was held — or at least that’s how it looked.

There was no penalty on the play, and the Commanders extended their lead to six points at the end of the third quarter. Moving the lead from a field goal to basically a touchdown put a lot of stress on the Steelers’ offense.
