The NFL did not fine Washington linebacker Ryan Kerrigan for a personal foul in Sunday’s loss to the Dolphins, confirming what the Redskins have been saying all along: It was a bad call.

“In my opinion it wasn’t a very good call at all‘,” Redskins coach Mike Shanahan said, via the Washington Post. “There was no helmet-to-helmet. I looked at the TV copy and looked at our copy. Sometimes those guys make mistakes. . . . He did not hit him in the helmet, at least from what I saw. Every now and then they’ll have a bad call.”

The penalty came when Kerrigan hit Dolphins running back Daniel Thomas while Thomas was attempting to catch a pass. The referee said it was a helmet-to-helmet hit on a defenseless receiver, but the video evidence didn’t appear to support that.

Kerrigan had a great game against the Dolphins, with six tackles, two sacks and two forced fumbles.
