NFL referee gets heated with Vikings linebacker Eric Wilson after accidental collision
- On Sunday, the NFL began reviewing an unusual exchange between Referee Adrian Hill and Minnesota Vikings linebacker Eric Wilson during Minnesota's 15-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins.
- The incident occurred with five minutes, 30 seconds remaining in the first quarter after Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon blocked Wilson, causing an unintentional collision with Hill following a neutral zone infraction whistle on Vikings linebacker Dallas Turner.
- After falling, Hill stood up and immediately confronted Wilson, appearing to yell at the linebacker while pointing for him to move away, though no flag was thrown on the play for the contact.
- Wilson later told reporters he apologized to Hill at halftime, explaining the situation. "That was funny, honestly," Wilson said, adding Hill clarified he was trying to separate the players.
- While the NFL rulebook mandates ejection for "unnecessary physical conduct with a game official," the replay command center did not intervene during the game, leaving the investigation ongoing.
