Matthew Golden creates instant meme with bizarre ref moment

Things got chippy between Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden and Carolina Panthers defensive back Marco Wilson during Thursday Night Football. Golden and Wilson got into a shoving match that resulted in a personal foul penalty on Wilson, and it led to one of the NFL season's funniest moments.

Field judge John Jenkins approached Golden and held his hand in an apparent effort to calm him down. It got Al Michaels to perform a brief rendition of The Beatles' I Want to Hold Your Hand and certainly made the rounds on social media.

Packers coach Matt LaFleur has to have appreciated the softer approach from the officiating crew.

Golden continued his excellent second season with seven catches for 79 yards and a touchdown. He's up to 43 receptions, 619 yards and four scores through eight games.
