Rams sixth-round rookie Tre Tomlinson has likely already earned a spot on the 53-man roster, but his final audition on Saturday night was cut short. During the Broncos’ first drive against the Rams, Tomlinson was called for a facemask penalty along the goal line, which prevented fellow rookie Marvin Mims Jr. from scoring.
Tomlinson dragged the receiver down by his facemask, a dangerous play that could’ve resulted in a serious injury. After discussing the play, the officials decided to eject Tomlinson for his clear infraction. It happened just 5 minutes and 19 seconds into the game.
