The Bills had 12 players on the field during a critical red zone play in overtime during their loss to the Vikings on Sunday.
On the play after Minnesota receiver Justin Jefferson hauled in a 24-yard pass on the sidelines, the Vikings lined up on first-and-goal on the Buffalo 2-yard line with 5:17 remaining in the extra period. Tailback Dalvin Cook took the carry but was tackled for a three-yard loss, pushing the Vikings further away from the end zone.
Video of the play shows the Bills clearly have 12 defensive players on the field ahead of the snap. However, Buffalo was not flagged on the play, a penalty that would’ve given Minnesota a first down at the 1-yard line instead of second-and-goal at the 5.
