On the heels of the Eagles’ Super Bowl LVII loss on Sunday, cornerback James Bradberry addressed a critical defensive holding penalty he drew late in the game that positioned the Chiefs for a 38–35 victory.
After the devastating loss, Bradberry was asked for his thoughts on the ruling made on the play, which resulted in a game-winning Harrison Butker field goal. And, while the aftermath of the call drew much controversy both on air and online, the 29-year-old admitted to reporters that the right call was made in the moment.
“I pulled on his jersey. They called it. I was hoping they would let it ride,” Bradberry said of the play, according to Josina Anderson of CBS Sports.
