Nasty brawl breaks out during the Pittsburgh Steelers’ victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars
A nasty brawl broke out between fans during the Jacksonville Jaguars‘ preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers Saturday night.
The Steelers beat the Jaguars in a preseason 16-15 thriller with undrafted rookie Tyler Snead scoring the game-winner with just under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter.
Despite the enticing action, some fans could not keep their attention on the field as a heated fight broke out among spectators in the stands.
In a clip posted to social media, fans could be seen exchanging heated words before one threw the first punch.
The move sparked wild scenes as fists started flying amid the mass fracas with some supporters topping over the seats and being on the receiving end of some haymakers.

Other spectators were quick to clear the area and avoid the violence before S.A.F.E Management, the company that handles security at the stadium, finally swooped in.
One of the brawlers was wearing a Kenny Pickett jersey. The quarterback’s second preseason performance was as impressive as his first, and it came against better competition.
Pittsburgh’s rookie completed six of seven passes for 76 yards and a touchdown in the victory at Jacksonville on Saturday night.

Pickett, who threw two second-half TD passes while working with backups against Seattle last week, was on the field much earlier against the Jaguars (0-3). He played with and against starters – and fit right in.
‘The more and more you play, the more comfortable you get. That’s just how it goes,’ Pickett said.
‘The more reps I get, the better I feel in the system… Whatever number they have me as, I don’t care. I’m going to go out there and play every single time as hard as I can.’
