Ugly fight between Raiders and Chargers late in game leads to two expulsions

The Los Angeles Chargers and the Las Vegas Raiders don't like each other and that was evident on Sunday.

The two teams got into a brawl late in the fourth quarter after the Raiders denied a Chargers two-point conversion. Several players were involved in the altercation, punches were exchanged, and the situation turned ugly before it was resolved.

Raiders cornerback Jack Jones and Chargers receiver Joshua Palmer were both ejected after the referees conferred and discussed the situation, resulting in compensatory penalties.

This all came after the Chargers had taken over the field and taken a 22-10 lead with 3:40 left in the game. Both teams had struggled on offense all day and the Raiders, led by quarterback Gardner Minshew, had failed to make much noise when they had the ball.

Here, frustration clearly boiled over on both sides.
