An ugly scuffle broke out late in Sunday’s game between the Carolina Panthers and Chicago Bears, and it resulted in multiple players getting ejected.
Things kicked off in the end zone after Bears running back Roschon Johnson scored a touchdown to give the Bears a 36-10 lead. Panthers defenders seemingly took offense to something, and a fight broke out with punches thrown.

Replays showed that Panthers cornerback Jaycee Horn appeared to take some extra shots at a Bears player after the touchdown, perhaps out of frustration. Bears offensive lineman Matt Pryor took note of this and threw a punch at Horn, which sparked the entire incident.

Horn and Pryor were both ejected.
There were definitely some similarities to another fight that took place earlier in the season. The Panthers were frustrated and things boiled over. This will likely lead to some fines, but nothing more than that.
