The Seattle Seahawks-Jacksonville jaguars game turned ugly late after a scuffle on field and near-scuffle between a player and fans.
As Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles took a knee to run out the clock in the final seconds, two Seahawks defenders hit him late, starting a fracas on the field.
Seahawks defensive tackle Quinton Jefferson was ejected for fighting, and as he made his way into the tunnel, turned back to argue with nearby fans in the stands. As the two parties exchanged words, someone appeared to throw an object on Jefferson, setting Jefferson off. Jefferson tried climbing into the stands to fight the fan, but was stopped by security before the situation escalated.
It was nearly an ugly moment for the Jaguars, Seahawks, NFL, and everyone involved.
Here's video:
Jefferson is sure to hear from the league for the incident and could even face suspension for attempting to go into the stands. Meanwhile, the fans who threw objects should be banned from arenas if they are caught.
