Zeke is currently not suspended. Lower court has not invalidated the injunction. This leads to Zeke appealingthe 5th circuit and I am hearing he wants en banc appeal which basically means no 3 judge panel, get the whole circuit there that is available of tge 15 to hear oral arguments on this.

What happened? 

Saints threw their first interception of the season. Effectively, Thomas caught it, landed on his side but then had it ripped from his hands. As it was ruled an interception on the field, the play stood even though as the commentary said if it had been ruled catch and down it would have stayed that. He clearly caught it though, so just ridiculous.

They missed the field goal that resulted anyway, so good.

He didn't complete the process of a reception. The receiver didn't have total control of the ball, therefore it was an INT. It was the right call even if convoluted.

But that's what the joke is -- the process of reception. He had it in his hands and landed. I don't know what is complete control outside of...having the ball in your hands. Considering the Lions player didn't even engage with the ball until Thomas had already landed...

It all comes down to semantics which is why you get baffling calls.
