The Chicago Bears were called for one of the most bizarre penalties of all-time.
During their game on Sunday, the Bears had some issues with their field due to flooding.

During a field goal attempt, the Bears tried to dry the field with a towel but apparently that illegal and they were called for an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty that took them out of field goal range.
“Unsportsmanlike conduct. Chicago, #16. Brought a towel out on the field during the dead-ball period and wiped the field down. By rule that’s illegal.”
