WATCH: Ravens OLB Matthew Judon ejected for accidentally punching an official vs. Steelers

Baltimore Ravens OLB Matthew Judon connected with an official and was thrown out of the game vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Things are getting seriously chippy out here at M&T Bank Stadium between the Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers.

Following Baltimore cornerback Marcus Peters and Pittsburgh wide receiver Diontae Johnson going to the ground on a play, things got heated on the sideline. Once the dust settled, Ravens outside linebacker Matthew Judon has been ejected for contracting an official.

In the broadcast replay, Judon was being held back by a member of Baltimore’s coaching staff and appeared to swing his arms in an effort to get loose. Unfortunately for Judon, an official was right in front of him and his fist connected with the official’s arm. While Peters’ and Johnson’s penalties offset, Judon got tagged for a 15-yard penalty and was sent to the locker room.

It’s still early, with the game not yet at halftime. It’s likely we haven’t seen the last of the intensity in this one.
