Eagles-Cowboys’ heated tunnel brawl gets three players ejected late in chaotic scene

What would a late December rivalry game be without a fight?

In an NFC East matchup during Week 17 between the Eagles and the Cowboys, tensions escalated into a physical altercation late in the fourth quarter.

The incident led to the ejection of three players: Eagles safety Sydney Brown, and Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Brooks and cornerback Troy Pride Jr.

The confrontation began with a play near the sideline, as Brown got tangled with Pride Jr. and tossed him to the ground away from the field of play an into the tunnel at Lincoln Financial Field.

More players from both teams piled on in the tunnel in a chaotic scene.

Officials and coaching staff struggled to separate the players as the situation intensified.

After restoring order, the referees conducted a thorough review and determined that Brown, Brooks, and Pride Jr. were primary instigators, and the three players were ejected from play.

The ejections had minimal impact on the game’s outcome, as the Eagles were leading 41-7, a score that would stand as the final.

The NFL is expected to review the incident further, which could result in additional fines or suspensions for the players involved.

With the win, the Eagles clinched the division and now stand at 13-3 trailing only the Vikings (14-2) and the Lions (13-2), who play on “Monday Night Football” this week, in the conference.
