My guess is contacting an official in the NFL has a threshold that results in ejection. This may or may not have reached that level but none of us know. JRut isn't saying he wouldn't eject at the levels he works. He's just saying none of us know if the ejection should have happened in this situation. We may eventually hear something from the league.

I can agree with this.
