Cam Robinson of the Jacksonville Jaguars was ejected during his team’s Thursday Night Football bout against the Miami Dolphins after the 25-year-old left tackle made contact with an official:

As you can see, this contact is fairly marginal, as the officials were actually the ones who were lying atop the fourth-year tackle after a huge scrum for the ball involving both teams.
As expected, many fans thought this ejection was staggeringly weak considering the fact that Robinson only reacted naturally to a mass of bodies lying atop him – especially when the officials were seemingly taking their sweet, sweet time to extricate themselves from Robinson’s hulking 6-foot-6, 320-pound frame:
Cam Robinson has had a pile of guys lying on him. Everyone else is up and he's still got TWO officials all over him. He pushes them off and it's an ejection?

The Jags came into the game with a 1-1 record while the Dolphins were 0-2, but Miami galloped out to a 28-7 lead in the third quarter.
