Hyde among 3 players ejected from Cardinals-49ers game after fight
Apparently, Week 9 is the time for fighting in the NFL.
After a brawl ignited by a late hit on San Francisco 49ers quarterback C.J. Beathard by Arizona Cardinals safety Antoine Bethea, officials ejected three players - 49ers running back Carlos Hyde, Cardinals linebacker Haason Reddick, and defensive lineman Frostee Rucker - for fighting late in the fourth quarter, according to Arizona's team writer Darren Urban. Bethea was given a penalty on the play, but not ejected.

The event followed a trend set by A.J. Green and Jalen Ramsey, who were ejected for a fight in the afternoon. Tampa Bay Buccaneers receiver Mike Evans also avoided an ejection despite a brutal cheapshot against the New Orleans Saints.
