Players aren't the only ones to risk the wrath of the NFL for acting badly.
A pair of officials have been suspended for their actions in Sunday's games.
The league suspended line judge Jeff Seeman two games and referee Adrian Hill one game, respectively, for "an instance of unprofessional conduct toward a player."
Seeman was caught on camera appearing to curse
at Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride during Sunday's game against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium.#NFL confirma que el Juez de Línea, Jeff Seeman, fue suspendido dos partidos y el Referee, Adrian Hill, suspendido un partido, cada uno por su conducta poco profesional al dirigirse a los jugadores.

The decisions came after NFLPA president J.C. Tretter took to social media saying he wanted the officials to be held to the same level of accountability as players.
"This kind of behavior from an official towards a player is unacceptable. Players are consistently held accountable when roles are reversed. We expect the NFL to hold officials to the same standard," Tretter wrote.
