NEW YORK (AP) - The NFL has upheld the Seahawks' 14-12 win over the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football.

The league says in a statement that it was a correct call not to overturn Seattle's last-second touchdown pass.

The replacement officials ruled on the field that Tate had simultaneous possession with Green Bay safety M.D. Jennings, which counts as a reception.

The Packers insisted Jennings had clear possession for a game-ending interception.

The NFL says Seahawks receiver Golden Tate should have been called for offensive pass interference before the catch but that can't be reviewed by instant replay. A flag would have clinched the game for the Packers.
