Massive Brawl Breaks Out Between Giants and Bills During Heated Moment on 'SNF'

Tempers flared during Week 6's Sunday Night Football as the Giants and Bills began to brawl late into the third quarter. 

After Latavius Murray picked up a first down, players on both sides were tangled up and began shoving one another, which quickly escalated further in what turned into a wild scene at Highmark Stadium.

Multiple players were involved in the heated exchange, for which there were a total of four penalties called, all of which offset.

Those penalized included New York’s Kayvon ThibodeauxLeonard Williams, and Dexter Lawrence, as well as Buffalo’s Dion Dawkins.

During the brawl, Thibodeaux could be seen on his back, kicking up at a pair of Bills players who were trying to hit him on the ground. 

Meanwhile, Williams could be seen shoving OT Spencer Brown to the ground in the end zone while three referees chased after them. Josh Allen then came in and attempted to lower his shoulder into Bobby Okereke.  

The skirmish caused a significant delay in the game. But after things were all sorted out, play resumed with a fresh set of downs for Buffalo. The Bills managed to score a go-ahead touchdown just a few plays later, taking a 7-6 lead.
