Jaguars and Eagles have two players ejected after opening-kickoff brawl in London

  • Jaguars’ opening kickoff return TD called back

  • Two players ejected after midfield confrontation

  • Chaotic scenes force opening kickoff to be replayed

A 90-yard kickoff return for a touchdown nullified and two players ejected.

It was quite a start to the game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Jaguars rookie Josh Cameron returned the opening kickoff 90 yards for a would-be touchdown, but it was called back because of offsetting penalties, including a hold by Jacksonville’s Branson Combs.

Meanwhile, there was a scrum at midfield, with pushing and shoving on both sides.
