At least two fights occurred.
The Philadelphia Eagles’ NFC East rivalry game against the Washington Commanders was a battle on the field, but it was a bloodbath in the stands.
Several videos in the stands depicted various fights between fans from both teams.
One video begins with a lone fan from each team throwing haymakers while a Washington fan walks over several rows to participate.
More join the fray after a couple of others try to break it up.
A Commanders fan was also put in a headlock and dragged to the ground by an Eagles fan. Another angle of the fight shows a kick being delivered and an Eagles fan throwing hammer fists.
The punches appear to have stopped soon after, but it did take some time for the aggressors to be broken up.
Another video appears to show an Eagles supporter tackling a Commanders supporter to the ground, while others appear to be involved in more chaos.
Fights in stadiums appear to have become more common in recent years. In September, one fan died shortly after a fight at New England’s Gillette Stadium. An autopsy later revealed that the fan, Dale Mooney, 53, did not suffer a “traumatic injury,” but that officials “did identify a medical issue.”
With their 38-31 victory over the Commanders, the Eagles improved to 7-1 on the season.
