           The @NFL first experimented with instant replay 45 years ago. @NFLOfficiating director Art McNally used a stopwatch and video camera during a 1976 #MNF game between the @dallascowboys and @BuffaloBills.

             The @NFL expanded its replay rule to allow replay officials to assist on-field officials in specific, limited game situations to prevent game stoppages and improve accuracy of calls. Learn more about replay assist:  https://t.co/P0YWud5ihu

             In #SFvsPHI the ruling on field was an incomplete pass. The ball was coming out prior to the hand coming forward. The rule allows for immediate recovery after the whistle has been blown.
