CFL adopts device for fixing officiating errors quickly

In 2016, the CFL will be doing something that the NFL needs to be doing, too. But the NFL needs to go even farther.

Via the Canadian Press, the Canadian Football League has added a video official, with the goal of correcting blatant officiating mistakes quickly. The video official will operate from the CFL’s command center in Toronto, monitoring the action from a feed that shows the entire field.

The expectation is simple: The video official will be asked to fix obvious errors that cannot be challenged via the replay review system.
