FOX’s NFL account had a brief little mishap of its own on Sunday, pulling down a video of referee Adrian Hill after he was knocked over during the Minnesota Vikings’ Week 4 game against the Miami Dolphins, then putting it back up again.
The sequence itself was odd enough on the field. In the second quarter, Hill was running in to sort out a third-down play after two Vikings defenders jumped offside and the whistle sounded.
Before everyone had fully stopped, linebacker Eric Wilson was pushed into Hill and sent him to the turf. Wilson immediately tried to help him up, but Hill sprang back to his feet and appeared to bark at him to get back to the huddle.
It was all a little awkward, especially because Hill seemed angry at the wrong person.
Props to referee Adrian Hill for not giving a penalty to Eric Wilson after he accidentally makes contact with him. https://t.co/WKcyNqJg5L

Fox’s NFL social account posted the clip with the caption “ an unintentional collision.” It stayed up for about 20 minutes before disappearing, giving the impression that someone at the network decided this wasn’t exactly the kind of moment they wanted to spotlight. But the video later returned.

There wasn’t much else from the first half to grab onto. Fox also highlighted a big special-teams hit, but beyond that, the Vikings managed only three field goals and Malik Willis threw for 45 yards.

An angry referee may have been the network’s most compelling first-half attraction.

Packers Fans May Need To Reassess MarShawn Lloyd Fast
MarShawn Lloyd has gotten a real look in Green Bay this season, and for stretches he has flashed the kind of versatility that made him an intriguing part of the backfield plan. He has appeared in multiple games, helped as a pass-catcher with nine receptions and a touchdown, and even earned more playing time as injuries and ball-security issues opened the door around him.
The challenge for Lloyd is what has happened when the ball has been in his hands as a runner. His 2.7 yards per carry is the lowest among the Packers running backs, and two recent fumbles have only sharpened the scrutiny. For a team trying to sort out its backfield hierarchy, that leaves Lloyd in a spot where the upside is still visible, but the margin for error feels awfully thin. [Read more 🡒]
Packers Still Searching For Depth At One Spot Fans Are Watching
The Packers kept working the edges of the roster this week with a set of tryouts that underscored how much the front office is still scanning for help. Green Bay looked at linebackers Deion Jones and Chris Paul, along with cornerbacks Cobee Bryant and Dwight McGlothern, in another reminder that the post-cutdown period is as much about staying ready as it is about finding a surprise fit.
With a full 53-man roster and practice squad already in place, any move would require Green Bay to clear space somewhere else, which is why these workouts matter even if nothing follows immediately. The team has been active with visits and tryouts since the deadline passed, and the pattern suggests the Packers are keeping a close eye on a few areas while leaving the door open for a roster shuffle if the right player becomes available.

Packers Suddenly Have One Big Linebacker Decision To Make
Edgerrin Coopers season-ending Achilles injury left the Packers with an immediate opening in the middle of their defense, and it comes at a time when Green Bay has to decide whether to trust what it already has or look outside the building for help. The internal route would keep the answer simple, but the injury also exposes how much the defense was relying on Coopers presence in that spot.
One name worth watching is Matt Milano, a free agent with prior ties to the Packers coaching staff and the kind of background that fits the role Green Bay suddenly needs filled. His recent production has dipped some, but he still brings experience as both a pass rusher and a run defender, which is why he could surface as a real option if the Packers decide they need a more proven solution.
