Two Players Were Ejected After A Giants-Commanders Brawl

The Giants and Commanders were not expected to produce one of the most exciting halves in football early in the window, as New York’s offense has been dreadful as of late with Tommy DeVito at center and Washington’s Sam Howell-led offense hasn’t exactly been. dynamic.

However, DeVito had the best half of his young career with two touchdown passes to give the Giants a 14-3 lead before Howell forced his way into the end zone on a tough run that put him seen getting rocked at the end by a big hit. as he continued to fight for the goal line (despite having already broken the plane).

After the hit, Howell remained on the ground and a number of his Washington teammates came to take offense at the big hit he received, while a fight broke out on the sidelines.

Both teams lost a player in the brawl, as Commanders WR Curtis Samuel and Giants DB Cor’Dale Flott were each tossed as they threw hands at each other during the ordeal.

Howell would return for the Commanders’ next drive, but was clearly still feeling the effects of that hit as he left the field for the locker room at halftime (after taking another hit on a sack to end their last half-time training). How he handles hits in the second half will be something to watch, as will whether his ability to throw the ball is affected by whatever he faces, but for now the Commanders are at five thanks to his efforts in this race.
