Miami Dolphins rookie running back Ollie Gordon II exploded on the sideline after being called for a holding penalty in a pivotal moment against the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night.
Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa completed a 36-yard pass to Jaylen Waddle that would have gotten the team closer to the end zone if it had remained standing. Gordon was called for blocking a defender who was rushing Tagovailoa on the play.

However, Gordon was seen sliding when a Ravens defender reached across the line of scrimmage. It appears that he did not touch the defender at all.
The rookie came off the field hot as the penalty negated the big play. He had a brief disagreement with associate head coach and running backs coach Eric Studdsville before he was seen screaming and yelling on the sideline. He had to be calmed down by some of his teammates.

The Dolphins selected Gordon in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft out of Oklahoma State. He has 110 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown in the first eight games of his career. He also had five catches for 27 yards and a receiving touchdown.
Baltimore led 14-6 midway through the second quarter. Lamar Jackson, in his first game back from injury, looked as sharp as ever as he fired two passes to Mark Andrews.
Dolphins kicker Riley Patterson kicked two field goals.
