A fight between Michael Pittman and Kyle Dugger led to ejections for both players in Saturday’s game between the Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots, but T.Y. Hilton might have also deserved an ejection.
Patriots coach Bill Belichick thinks the veteran receiver should have been tossed for contacting an official.
“Bottom line is both players got ejected,” Belichick said of the fight Monday, per ESPN’s Mike Reiss. “I would say I understand that. Whether I agree with it or not, that’s a whole another discussion. [But] I don’t understand why T.Y. Hilton wasn’t ejected for contacting an official. Intentionally or unintentionally, that has no bearing on the play. And those plays are reviewable and are reviewed.”
The main scuffle was between Pittman and Dugger, leading to a wider altercation between the two teams.
Hilton was caught up in the pile and was seen pushing over an official when getting to his feet.
