Umpire gets football to the face after not seeing Logan Paulsen's casual toss (VIDEO)

Chris Chase, USA TODAY Sports
Paulsen's throw was on target but the umpire didn't have the proper read.

When you hang around the butterfinger-prone Washington Redskins too much, you have the tendency to want to catch objects with your face or head or stomach or legs -- anything but the hands.

NFL umpires are a prime example.

Last week, the ump in the 'Skins game against the Pittsburgh Steelers was nailed with an errant Ben Roethlisberger pass. On Sunday, an ump didn't see Washington tight end Logan Paulsen flip the ball to him after a catch and it hit him square in the face and forced him to receive brief medical attention for a potential eye injury. (He was fine, so you're free to laugh. He did.)

Better high than low, I suppose.
