The NFL suspended two officials Monday after separate confrontations with players, including one incident in which a line judge was accused of cursing at Cardinals tight end Trey McBride.

The league suspended line judge Jeff Seeman for two games and referee Adrian Hill for one game, citing “unprofessional conduct toward a player.” Seeman was disciplined after an exchange with McBride during the Cardinals’ game against the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium. Hill was suspended after angrily responding to Minnesota Vikings linebacker Eric Wilson following an unintentional collision.

Seeman’s confrontation with McBride drew immediate criticism from NFL Players Association Executive Director JC Tretter, who called on the league to hold officials to the same standards as players. “This kind of behavior from an official towards a player is unacceptable,” Tretter said. “Players are consistently held accountable when the roles are reversed. We expect the NFL to hold officials to the same standard.”

CBS reporter Aditi Kinkhabwala, who was on the sideline during the McBride incident, said the exchange began when McBride asked Seeman for a pass-interference call. “What’s wild is that it all started with Trey McBride saying ‘please’ when pleading his case for a PI flag,” Kinkhabwala said. “He was heated for sure, but I never heard a curse from him. The harshest he got was, ‘You’re ruining the game.’”

The disciplinary action comes as officials face increasing scrutiny over interactions with players and coaches. On Sunday, Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel was also assessed a 15-yard penalty for using an expletive while protesting a call, although the language was not directed at the official in a derogatory manner. Seeman’s two-game suspension is the longer of the two penalties
