Two ejections on opening kickoff of Eagles-Jaguars game in London
On Sunday, the Jacksonville Jaguars and Philadelphia Eagles began their game at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with a dramatic 90-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. However, the play was nullified due to a combination of penalties. Jaguars rookie Josh Cameron attempted to return the kickoff, but it was called back because of an offsetting penalty involving a hold by Jacksonville’s Branson Combs.
The game took an even more chaotic turn as both teams engaged in a brawl at midfield, resulting in scrums and physical altercations. When the dust settled, two players were ejected from the match: Jacksonville’s Bryan Thomas Jr. and Philadelphia’s Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Despite the initial ejection, the game continued as if nothing had happened. The teams lined up for another kickoff, starting the contest anew.
