Refs honor someone

Noticed that the refs all have a black circle on their hats honoring someones passing?

Who?

It's "CM" in the circle....

The "CM" patch on the hats is in tribute to former referee Carl Madsen, who passed away after working Week 7's Kansas City Chiefs-Tennessee Titans game. Police say that Madsen died as he was driving home from the game in Nashville, Tenn.

Madsen was 71-years-old.

"Carl Madsen was an NFL officiating fixture for more than two decades, first as a highly respected on-field official before transitioning to a replay role beginning in 2009," NFL senior VP of officiating training and development Walt Anderson said in a statement, via NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. "A terrific friend and colleague, Carl's love of football and dedication to officiating was ever-present, as he generously shared his time to mentor young officials at clinics across the country. A veteran of the Air Force, Carl had a tremendous spirit and will be greatly missed."

Madsen had served as an on-field referee from 1997 until 2008. Beginning in 2009, Madsen had been working as a replay official.
