Seahawks turn on each other in heated sideline brawl as tempers flare during loss to Buffalo Bills

Tensions were running high during the Seattle Seahawks’ Week 8 loss to the Buffalo Bills Sunday. 

As Seattle slumped to a 31-10 defeat, Derick Hall and Jarran Reed came to blows during a heated sideline altercation after the latter committed a poor penalty. 

On third-and-seven with 37 seconds left in the second quarter, Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw an incomplete pass that would have forced a punt on the fourth down. 

However, Buffalo was handed a lifeline as Hall got to the signal caller late and was flagged for roughing the passer.

As a result of the penalty, the Bills advance half the distance to the goal and received a fresh set of downs.

Allen then found Dalton Kincaid for a 12-yard touchdown just two plays later, seeing Buffalo take a 14-3 lead. 

Reed was furious with the 23-year-old Hall for giving up the penalty and made his frustrations known. 

The 31-year-old, eight-year veteran was spotted screaming in his teammates face before Buffalo offensive lineman Dion Dawkins surprisingly intervened to separate the warring teammates. 

But Hall reignited the spat back at the sidelines as he said something at Reed, which sparked a violent reaction from the defensive tackle. 

He grabbed his teammate’s face guard and shoved him before multiple players and coaches rushed in to separate the pair. 

The day didn’t improve for Seattle either as the Seahawks went on to stutter to their fourth loss of the season as the Bills put on a dominant display in a 31-10 win.
