Head Security Kicked Off NFL Field During Double Ejection: 49ers - Eagles

A brawl in the San Francisco 49ers vs Philadelphia Eagles game led to a double ejection -- one of the ejections included the head security guard for the Eagles.

It all began after Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed a pass to wide receiver DeVonta Smith for a first down. Smith was tackled by 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw.

At the end of the play, Greenlaw "body slammed" the Eagles into the ground, per the announcers, which led to a scrum on Philly's sideline. Greenlaw then got into a shoving match with a man in a black jacket, who was later identified as the Eagles' chief of security, Dom DiSandro. 

DiSandro and Greenlaw were both ejected from the game.

Dom DiSandro, the Eagles security chief, received a standing ovation from the crowd as they believed the ejection was not called for.

The drama continued as on the next play, the Eagles offense scored a touchdown as quarterback Jalen Hurts ran it in himself.

The 49ers then answered the Eagles as Deebo Samuel ran for a 48-yard touchdown.

The brawl that broke out during the third quarter was the second fight that occurred as the coaches and players from both teams got into it before the game even began.

Many NFL fans took to social media to voice their frustrations with the double ejection.

One user bashed the Eagles by saying, "The Eagles just make themselves the most unlikable team possible every single week. In what world should anyone on your sidelines that’s not a player be allowed to start a confrontation leading to an ejection of an opposing player. What a joke."

And another expressed, "Also, how can someone on the eagles sidelines get ejected. But no penalty flag is thrown? Yet the 49ers get an ejection and 15 yards?"

"Dre Greenlaw getting ejected is the worst call in sports history. The bias is unbelievable," that same user added in a different post.

This latest double ejection comes just weeks after 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 on November 19.

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.

It also comes 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.

Going into the 49ers vs Eagles game, many NFL fans expected drama to unfold, but they never pictured a brawl breaking out before the game plus a double ejection.
