Jim Nantz Had A Strange Explanation For NFL’s Urgent “Administrative Timeout” That Came Out Of Nowhere During Chiefs-Ravens Game (VIDEO)

Jim Nantz had to give a strange explanation to fans about the “administrative timeout” during the first quarter of Sunday’s AFC Championship Game.

During the first quarter of Sunday’s AFC Championship tilt between the Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens at M&T Bank Stadium, there was a brief stoppage in what was called an “administrative timeout.”

The CBS play-by-play voice then informed fans that there was apparently a drone “too close to the play” that caused the stoppage. Nantz emphasized, however, that it wasn’t the CBS drone.

"An administrative timeout… you may have not heard of one like that before. But it was a drone apparently that was interfering too close to the play. It was not ours, we're told." – Jim Nantz pic.twitter.com/gKF9zlyklF

The Chiefs took a 17-7 lead into the locker room at halftime. With a victory, they’ll play in their fourth Super Bowl in the last five years.
