Dec 30, 2024
Things got ugly toward the end of Sunday’s game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles.
The Eagles blew out the Cowboys in the Week 17 game, but there was still bad blood between these NFC East rivals.
The score was already 41-7 when the Eagles punted the ball before the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter and the scuffle started.
Eagles defensive back Sydney Brown was taken down by Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Brooks and tangled with Cowboys cornerback Troy Pride Jr. in the stadium tunnel at Lincoln Financial Field.
Then more Cowboys and players rushed in as referees tried to separate everyone.

In the end, Brown, Brooks and Pride were thrown out of the game.
Pride called out Brown for the skirmish according to The Dallas Morning News.
“You start fighting and start grabbing and you do too much and that’s the type of play you saw from him earlier in the game,” Pride said of Brown. “The fact is there’s no room in the game for that. We’re not dirty players and I don’t want to be DQ. I hate that happened because somebody was doing too much.”
