Physical altercations among NFL fans have become increasingly common during games.
Once again, another incident of fans engaging in fights at NFL games made headlines this week.
This particular incident took place at FedEx Field, where the Commanders faced off against the Eagles on Sunday.
The video footage doesn’t provide a precise count of the individuals involved, but it appeared that at least half a dozen fans from both teams were embroiled in the altercation.
It's getting really annoying to see all those fan fights every single week in the NFL. This one from the #Eagles–#Commanders game.
When will the league find a solution and put an end to this?

Towards the end of the video, a fan donning an Eagles jersey placed a Commanders fan in a headlock, causing the two to tumble to the ground, with the Eagles fan gaining the upper hand.
An onlooker, seemingly uninvolved in the brawl, shouted: “Get the heck out of here, dude!”
Another spectator, also not part of the fight, yelled: “Yeah EAGLES!!!!!!”
The Eagles ultimately emerged victorious with a 38-31 win.
Sitting at 7-1, the Eagles hold a 1 1/2-game lead in the NFC East over the 5-2 Cowboys, whom they will face this Sunday.
It’s clear that fans caught fighting must face severe consequences; a mere slap on the wrist will not resolve this issue.
