Fox analyst Daryl Johnston suggested that Arizona Cardinals defensive back Denzel Burke got away with defensive pass interference on Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow’s pass attempt to receiver Andrei Iosivas during the Bengals’ opening drive of their NFL Week 17 game at Paycor Stadium.
“I think there’s legitimate reason why this crowd is a little bit upset here,” Johnston said during the broadcast, when Burke was not penalized for grabbing Iosivas during the first quarter.

The Bengals scored the first touchdown of the game a short time later, on a catch and run by receiver Ja’Marr Chase.
It was Chase’s sixth score of the season, and first since October.
Burrow was 5-of-8 for 60 passing yards with the TD pass on the team’s opening drive.
