Aaron Rodgers appeared to yell at Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur after throwing an incomplete pass on third down in the closing moments of regulation against the Dallas Cowboys.

Rodgers tossed the ball away to stop the clock and failed to get a first down to continue the drive to try to break the 28-28 tie late in the fourth quarter. He then expressed his frustration with LaFleur.
