The NFL on Thursday took the highly unusual step of firing down judge Hugo Cruz for performance reasons. It is the first time the NFL has fired an official in-season during the Super Bowl era because of performance. Cruz, who last worked in Week 6 and is no longer an NFL employee, joined the NFL in 2015. He was responsible for one high-profile mistake this season when he missed an obvious false start by Los Angeles Chargers left tackle Russell Okung on a scoring play in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns. He did not work in Week 7. Otherwise, the details of the league’s decision — including other mistakes Cruz is presumed to have made — are unknown.
