The NFL Referees Association will challenge the suspensions of referee Adrian Hill and line judge Jeff Seeman for unprofessional conduct, per CBS Sports. Both officials face discipline for their conduct during Week 4, though the specific incidents leading to the suspensions were not detailed in available reporting.
