The brother of a former top NFL referee said he believes that the league actively fixes games. Dean Blandino, a Fox Sports analyst who was the NFL’s vice president of officiating from 2013 to 2017, revealed his brother’s conspiracy theory on a radio show, according to OutKick. The unnamed brother “is convinced that I signed an NDA when I left the league office that I cannot tell anybody that it’s rigged because I was head of officiating,” Blandino told the listeners of The D.A. Show on SiriusXM. “We grew up in the same household, by the way.” Blandino, however, has tried his best to convince him that it isn’t even possible to rig professional football games. “I said, ‘Listen, there’s no conspiracy,‘” Blandino said. “The officials—there’s too many variables, there’s too much going on.” The topic came up during a conversation about whether the Kansas City Chiefs, who are eyeing their third-straight NFL championship, are favored by the referees. “They’re a good team, and they make their own breaks,” Blandino said. “Yes, have they gotten the benefit of calls? Sure. Other teams get benefit of calls.” The Chiefs will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl, on Feb. 9.
