New York Giants cornerback Cor’Dale Flott and Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel were both ejected for a fight after a Sam Howell touchdown.
The two were seen pushing and shoving one another on the NFL sideline before many of the other players came running over in an attempt to break it up.
Cor’Dale Flott and Curtis Samuel Ejected From The Game For Fighting
Flott and Samuel were seen getting into a physical altercation following the Washington Commanders touchdown on Sunday afternoon. It is unclear what exactly led to the fight, but it prompted the rest of the Giants and Commanders players to run over in an attempt to break up the fight.
One video posted on X shows the fight that broke out between Samuel and Flott.

This ejection comes just weeks after Baltimore Ravens player Kyle Hamilton was ejected following a brutal helmet-to-helmet play, leaving wide receiver Chris Moore wobbling to get up. The scary incident left NFL fans everywhere worried about the Tennessee Titans player, as he was visibly injured and taken to the locker room for further evaluation.
The Tennessee Titans wide receiver Chris Moore made a catch before Baltimore Ravens defender, Kyle Hamilton, came from behind, smacking him with a helmet-to-helmet player, and knocking Moore to the ground. The play occurred during the October 15 game.
Moore was visibly stumbling when he attempted to get up, before nearly falling back down as his teammates caught him. The wide receiver was then helped to the sideline and into the locker room for further evaluation as Kyle Hamilton was ejected from the game.

It also comes weeks after the benches cleared during pre-game warm ups at the Dallas Cowboys vs Los Angeles Chargers “Monday Night Football” game on October 16.
Players and coaches from both teams were involved in the fight as referees came running over to try and break it up.
NFL Injuries In The 2023 Season Thus Far
This ejection comes just moments after the Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Joey Bosa was carted off the field in the first quarter of the football game Sunday afternoon. He was seen sitting on the back of the cart, crying into his towel as he left the game.
The NFL star limped off the field and was then seen on the cart as he left the game, visibly hurt. It is questionable if he will return to play.
It also comes weeks after NFL quarterback Deshaun Watson suffered a severe head injury after a play during the Cleveland Browns vs the Indianapolis Colts. On October 22, the 28-year-old remained down on the field for several minutes after he got shoved to the ground hard by a defender, resulting in his head slamming into the turf.
Watson has been ruled out for the remainder of the NFL season.
