On Sunday, the heated rivalry between the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers was reignited inside Lincoln Financial Field.
In the first quarter, a fight broke out between the two teams, with the Steelers near the Eagles’ end zone.
Flags were thrown as the melee was sparked because Pittsburgh TE Darnell Washington blocked Eagles cornerback Darius Slay all the way to the padding behind the goalposts.
Darius Slay was not thrilled about it, so he decided to let his fists do the talking.
Fan footage has since surfaced showing the Eagles cornerback throwing at least three punches at Washington and somehow escaping being flagged by the refs.

Slay may have escaped not being flagged, but the NFL league office will most certainly review the footage and access a hefty fine later in the week because of his actions.
