There’s been outcry on Twitter against Niners cornerback Josh Norman after it appeared that he punched Vikings WR Adam Thielen in the spine after a play.
Vikings fans are calling for the NFL to investigate the incident, and hand out a suspension to Norma after his foul play.
Fans argue that the punch could have caused serious injury to Thielen.
Take a look at the incident yourself.
The @NFL needs to review this play & send a nice note to #49ers Josh Norman for this gorilla punch to the back of #Vikings Adam Thielen.
Hitting someone in the spine could be a serious injury.
How does the ref miss this? If Thielen retaliates he’d of got the flag for sure. pic.twitter.com/LgAFYpwATV— Ron Johnson (@3RonJohnson) November 29, 2021

Dirty play by by a dirty player @J_No24 @NFLOfficiating is horrible! The ref was right there. How does a blatant call like this get missed? @SNFRules thoughts on this? https://t.co/H2Z2reVdQ7

You do have to wonder how the ref missed that.
