NFL QB Jordan Love and wife mock referees with Halloween costume

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 5 Nov, 00:03 · Archive

Jordan Love and his wife dressed as blind referees for Halloween to mock NFL officiating.

Jordan Love and Ronika Stone dressed as blind referees for Halloween, donning black-and-white striped tops with sunglasses and canes. In a video posted to Stone's TikTok account, the pair bumped into each other and threw a penalty flag, with Stone captioning it, 'I'm jokin, immmmmm jokin.'

The costume appears to reference the Packers' struggles with NFL officiating this season. Love has been the most hit quarterback in the NFL through Week 8 but has not received a single roughing the passer call in his favour. The Packers suffered a controversial 20-17 loss to the Lions in Week 7 that prompted further scrutiny of officiating decisions.

Despite the officiating challenges, Love has been productive, leading the league with 2,246 passing yards and recording 16 touchdown passes. His teammate, safety Xavier McKinney, has publicly criticised the referees, stating, 'I don't think it's great officiating, if I'm being completely honest.'

Fans responded positively to the couple's Halloween tribute, though some expressed concern that Love might face fines for the costume. Stone joked in the comments that they were 'Footlocker employees.' Love and the Packers face the New England Patriots on Sunday.
