The list of the NFL replacement officials for the third preseason week is available after the jump.


All times are EDT and are 8 p.m. unless otherwise noted. Positions are listed in order: referee, umpire, head linesman, line judge, field judge, side judge, and back judge.

The relative positions of the officials on the field. The first-down chains are at the top sideline, the single yard-to-gain and the drive-start stakes at the bottom sideline. The chain crew switches sidelines at halftime, as do the four sideline officials.

  2. Despite other baggage that Farina brings, this call is not one of them. The NCAA made it a point of emphasis prior to the season about pre-score celebrations. There was no nuance in there about how you presented yourself, just that the penalty would be a live-ball spot foul, and negate any score on the play.

    He made the difficult, painful, and correct call in that situation.

    Now as to his sudden availability for the NFL this year, that is another story.
