WATCH: Quandre Diggs gets ejected from Sunday Night Football

Seahawks safety Quandre Diggs was ejected from Sunday Night Football after a hit on N’Keal Harry. You can watch the incident here: 

Sunday Night Football between the Seattle Patriots and New England Patriots is a big one, with both teams coming into the matchup 1-0. It featured two of the best coaches in the NFL, Pete Carroll and Bill Belichick.

Starting at safety for the Seahawks was former Texas defensive back Quandre Diggs. The sixth-year player was looking to slow down Patriots’ starting quarterback Cam Newton in the air.

Towards the end of the first quarter, Newton led N’Keal Harry across the middle of the field with a pass. Diggs flew down from his safety position, laying a violent hit on the wide receiver.

Not only did he acquire a personal foul, unnecessary roughness for 15 yards but Diggs was ejected from the game.

Somehow, Harry was able to complete the catch and hang on, even after the hit. He also jumped onto his feet quickly for a head to head collision.

WATCH: Former Longhorn Quandre Diggs delivers a huge hit

Former Longhorn Quandre Diggs delivered a huge hit to Irv Smith last night. The hit was so big, you could hear the two players colliding.

The Seattle Seahawks played host to the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football last night. In the middle of the second quarter, the two teams were tied at seven. Quarterback Kirk Cousins found former Alabama tight end on an out route near the line of scrimmage. Former Texas cornerback Quandre Diggs quickly sniffed it out and delivered a monster hit.

Smith only gained three yards on the play. Once Diggs hit him, he immediately went down. The hit was so big, you could hear the two players colliding.

You can watch the hit here:

Diggs is having a great season for Seattle after being traded from Detroit. In the three games, he has forced two turnovers, an interception and a fumble. His interception came in a win against the San Fransico 49ers. Against the Philadelphia Eagles, he forced and recovered a fumble.

Diggs and the Seahawks beat Minnesota last night, moving into first place in the NFC West. Their final four games will come against the Los Angeles Rams, Carolina Panthers, Arizona Cardinals, and San Fransico 49ers.
