Fox News reported that Craig Carton has questioned why Chicago Bears defensive back Malik Muhammad ran away from Rhamondre Stevenson on a late touchdown, and has demanded that the National Football League investigate. The report, available as the Fox News article, ties the question to a Bears-Patriots game.

According to the Fox News headline, Carton's remarks concern questions the league has to ask about a moment in that game. The headline does not state what those questions are, and the summary does not say whether the league has been asked to respond.

The Fox News summary describes the play only as a late touchdown on which Muhammad "ran away from" Stevenson. It does not describe the formation, the score, or any rules that may bear on the play, and this report does not supply those details.

As the summary presents it, Carton is demanding an NFL investigation. The summary does not say what such an investigation would examine, whether the league has responded, or what Carton's role or affiliation is.

No statement from the NFL, the Bears, the Patriots, Muhammad, or Stevenson appears in the material available for this report. The Fox News item carries no named author in the record provided.

This account rests on the headline, summary, and publication record of the Fox News item alone. Because it is drawn from a summary, the wording of the original article may differ from the description given here, and facts beyond those listed are not stated.
