Seahawks cornerback Josh Jobe and Chargers receiver Tre Harris drew offsetting unsportsmanlike conduct flags Sunday, in a first-quarter sequence during Seattle's 30-23 Week 4 win at Lumen Field.
The penalties canceled each other out, but still leave the open question of whether the NFL fines either player a new punishment. Jobe already carries a disciplinary measure from Super Bowl LX on his record.
The game opened with the teams trading interceptions on consecutive snaps, and Los Angeles had driven to the Seattle 23 when the flags flew. The penalties came with 12:30 left in the first quarter, after Kimani Vidal ran through the left guard position for one yard on second-and-5. Ernest Jones tackled him.
Officials flagged both Jobe and Harris, calling unsportsmanlike conduct on each. The penalties offset, and the gain stood. Justin Herbert then threw incomplete to Quentin Johnston, and Cameron Dicker kicked a 40-yard field goal for a 3-0 Chargers lead.
No official report, penalty explanation or player quote describes what Jobe or Harris did. Video replay could not locate the fouls, according to Field Gulls . The flags landed in a penalty-filled game. Seattle drew 14 penalties for a franchise-record 150 yards, and Los Angeles drew 16 for 130. Together, the teams accepted 30 penalties for 280 yards. Seahawks coach Mike Macdonald addressed his team's seven personal fouls.
"Unacceptable," Macdonald said, as quoted by ESPN .
