Watch: Myles Jack ejected for throwing punch, dragged off field
The first game of the season was not a very long one for Myles Jack, as the star linebacker was ejected in the first half of the Jacksonville Jaguars-Kansas City Chiefs game for throwing a punch at an opponent.
A scuffle broke out between the two teams following a Patrick Mahomes fumble in the red zone, and Jack got into it with Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins. Jack got up off the ground and threw a punch, which drew a flag and an ejection.

Jack had to be physically restrained by teammates and then dragged off the field by staffers after being kicked out of the game.

Jack could face a fine and/or suspension for both the punch and the way he acted after being tossed. With the Jaguars having already lost one star linebacker in shocking fashion during the offseason, they need Jack on the field as much as possible.
