All-Pro left tackle Trent Williams added some fireworks to the San Francisco 49ers' 30-12 win when he got into a shoving match with New York Giants defensive tackle A'Shawn Robinson on 'Thursday Night Football.'
"We ended up looking at the video we had available to us, and we just didn't see anything that rose to the level of flagrant, which is the standard that we have to apply to disqualify the player," Anderson said, citing the NFL's Rule 19.
When Barrows pushed back at the idea that striking someone in the facemask wouldn't warrant a flagrant, "These are judgment calls and a lot of times you might end up having an open hand, often a stiff arm to the face, versus a closed fist punch, which certainly carries a different weight to it," Anderson said."You can certainly end up having contact with hands to the helmet, and some of those actions would be deemed a punch, others would not.""It wasn't that hard," heafter the game."Just mixing it up, man. There are a lot of tempers flaring out there.
Since he didn't get ejected, the 49ers were able to benefit from the presence of one of the league's top offensive lineman as the team notched a total of 441 yards on offense.
