Is this a sign of things to come from NFL officiating?

Chicago Bears defensive tackle Mike Pennel Jr. was ejected on Monday for an illegal blindside block against the New England Patriots. The penalty was textbook, but the ejection came as a surprise.

Roquan Smith intercepted Bailey Zappe with 8:00 remaining in the game, and during his 15-yard return, Pennel took out an unsuspecting David Andrews. Pennel caught the Patriots center in the head, and then Andrews' helmet bounced off the turf.

While Andrews walked off on his own powers, he did seem woozy after the play.

This is one of those hits that the NFL wants to seriously eliminate from the game.
