The New York Giants secured a victory against the Seattle Seahawks with a dramatic play involving a blocked field goal returned for a touchdown. However, the legality of the play has sparked debate among fans and analysts.
Linebacker Isaiah Simmons blocked the kick, allowing Bryce Ford-Wheaton to score. While some argue a penalty should have been called, NFL officials clarified that Simmons acted within the rules, as he did not use another player for leverage. Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald acknowledged the need for better blocking from his team.
