The union representing NFL referees followed up on Commissioner Roger Goodell's comments on what he described as "ridiculous" presumptions regarding officials fairness.

The NFL referees union addressed what it called "conspiracy theories" that officials show bias in favor of Super Bowl champs the Kansas City Chiefs.

The executive director of the NFL Referees Association is the latest to release a statement to rubbish the continued conspiracy theory about bias towards the Kansas City Chiefs. Roger Goodell called it a "ridiculous theory" and three-time Super Bowl winner Julian Edelman labelled it as "baloney" and now the head of the refereeing union has also rejected the claims.
