WATCH: Titans, Commanders players get into massive scuffle as Week 13 showdown heats up
Week 13's Tennessee Titans vs. Washington Commanders on Sunday night turned into chaos. With 24 seconds left in the first quarter and the Commanders dominating 21-0, the game was brought to a standstill as players from both teams engaged in a scuffle.
As referees rushed in, broadcaster Andrew Catalon on CBS, drew a comparison, saying:
"Now we have shades of Michigan and Ohio State."
University of Michigan and Ohio State University football games often display the most intense college rivalries and are known for their frequent flare-ups. Notably, the rivalry saw a peak moment during the "Ten-Year War" (1969–1978).
The Titans' Jeffery Simmons was without his helmet during the confrontation before LB Bobby Wagner stepped in to de-escalate the situation.
The Titans stand third in the AFC South at 3-8 while the Commanders stand second in the NFC East at 7-5.
