"We are looking into the matter," a league spokesman told OutKick.

Line judge Jeff Seeman, the son of former NFL supervisor of officials Jerry Seeman, was caught on camera saying something to McBride along the Cardinals sideline that looked to include an expletive.

Although the OutKick lipreading department does not work on Sundays, it seems clear Seeman said, "(Bleep) you."

With the bleep word rhyming with duck.

Or luck.

Or truck.

Seeman used the term twice consecutively.

"This kind of behavior from an official towards a player is unacceptable," Tretter posted. "Players are consistently held accountable when the roles are reversed. We expect the NFL to hold officials to the same standard."

Most game officials would not go off on an expletive-filled response unless there was a reason that set them off.

There are unconfirmed accounts McBride yelled at the officials when he disagreed with one of their calls, although it is unclear what exactly he said to them.

Whatever McBride may have said, the response from officiating is always to throw a penalty flag.
