AJ Brown got away with clear OPI on early Titans touchdown (Video)
The Tennessee Titans are up early on the Ravens but star wideout AJ Brown somehow got away with an obvious offensive pass interference.
This play is going to be talked about for quite some time, especially if the Tennessee Titans hang on and take down the Baltimore Ravens in the Wild Card Round. On Sunday, Tennessee increased its lead to 10-0 thanks to an acrobatic touchdown grab by star wideout AJ Brown.
However, it sure looks like Brown was pushing and shoving from start to finish. A closer look at the play and it’s obvious that a pass interference penalty should have been called against him. Seriously, how did Brown get away with this?

AJ Brown clearly pushed off Marlon Humphrey on his touchdown grab
You’ve got to feel terrible for Ravens defensive back Marlon Humphrey here. What in the world was he supposed to do? He played things perfectly and then was basically thrown to the ground by Brown.
He was incredibly confused when he got to his feet and saw there was no laundry on the field. This was textbook offensive interference, yet the zebras on the field didn’t call it? Baltimore fans are furious on social media and you can’t blame them for it whatsoever.
In this particular case, the Titans were basically gifted a touchdown with no flag thrown. In what figures to be a see-saw battle, this no call could make the difference in who comes out on top of this one.
