The Jaguars and Bills met on Sunday in Buffalo in the rematch of their playoff matchup a year ago, but this time around there was far less on the line as both teams came into the game at 3-7. The loser would all but be eliminated from playoff contention, but neither team has much hope of a return to the postseason.
The game was, predictably, not the finest played football game, but things got very testy in the late third quarter with the game tied at 14-14. Donte Moncrief went up and pulled down a catch at the one over Levi Wallace as the two players wrestled for the ball as they came to the ground.
The two refused to let go, wrestling over the ball on the ground for a full minute, but no one paid much attention to that as others got involved and a brawl broke out on the sidelines.

Ultimately, Shaq Lawson and Leonard Fournette were ejected from the game for throwing punches as the fight spilled over near the stands.

The two jawed at each other in the tunnel (because New Era Stadium only has one tunnel to both locker rooms) and Lawson had to be restrained as he was eventually escorted into the Bills locker room.
Even more incredibly, the Jaguars failed to score after the play. Once Moncrief was ruled down on the one, a penalty backed them up further and led to a missed field goal. It was an unbelievable sequence of events from both teams, and the Jags likely got the worst of it as Fournette was over 100 yards on the game and was, for the most part, their lone source of offense outside of that Moncrief catch.
