What did Pete Carroll throw on field instead of challenge flag?

Pete Carroll challenged a ruling in the first half of the Seattle Seahawks-Green Bay Packers game on Sunday, but he did so without throwing his red challenge flag. The coach instead tossed some random item from his pocket, and many people thought it was a flip phone. That, unfortunately, was not the case.

Carroll wanted to challenge the ruling that Aaron Rodgers recovered a ball after a bad snap. An official could be seen telling him to “throw the flag,” but Carroll seemingly misplaced it. So he threw whatever was in his pocket.
