Week 9 of the National Football League (NFL) was marked by a couple of altercations between players, which escalated to physical fights and had to be separated by their teammates.
The first conflict took place in the game between Cincinnati and Jacksonville; the fight started towards the end of the second quarter when the Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey pushed the Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green, who then tackled Ramsey and threw some punches until they were separated. Both players were ejected from the field.

The second brawl occurred in the match between New Orleans and Tampa Bay; the main participants were the Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans and the Saints cornerback MarShon Lattimore. It all started when Lattimore confronted Tampa Bay's quarterback Jameis Winston, to which Evans responded with a tackle and then went after him.
