Aaron Colvin Rips Refs for Call on Rob Gronkowski Catch in Texans vs. Patriots

Houston Texans defensive back Aaron Colvin was not happy with the officiating after his team's season-opening 27-20 loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday.

Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski had a long reception before halftime that helped the victors sustain a drive, although it appeared as if the call should have been incomplete. Colvin insinuated poor calls are something teams have to deal with when they play the Patriots.

"It's tough, man, but I mean we're playing in New England. So you know what that means," he said, per Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle.
