The clown was Indianapolis Colts' defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo.  There was plenty of coverage.

Taking to "Peanut Tillman" punchout to the extreme, Indianapolis Colts' defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo took multiple swings at Buffalo Bills' quarterback Josh Allen during a rushing attempt early in the fourth quarter on Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium.

On a Bills’ fourth down deep in Colts’ territory in the fourth quarter, Colts defensive end Dayo Odeyingbo tried to stop Josh Allen from rushing for a fresh set of downs. During the scrum, Odeyingbo threw several punches at Allen that went unnoticed by the NFL referees.

If this "play" goes unpunished even with the gift of hindsight, then it becomes that much harder to fight off concerns about subjectivity and favoritism in NFL officiating, and in the machinations of the league at large. 

I agree, the league can't possibly cover this up.  He's bound to get a fine very soon.

I remember watching a Bills game against the Steelers 3-5 years ago, where TJ Watt was punching Josh during a run.

 

He made it look like he was aiming to punch the ball out, but most of his punches landed on Josh's arm and body.

I swear there was a slow motion replay of it, that showed Josh look over at TJ, after the first punch, with an astonished expression, like WTF??  When I saw the play, I couldn't believe it wasn't flagged. 

 

I can understand defenses trying to dislodge a ball by trying to punch it out of the ball carriers arms, but there should be repercussions when the punch hits the player and not the ball.
