It was a quick outing for Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver A.J. Green and Jacksonville Jaguars cornerback Jalen Ramsey as both were ejected following an on-field altercation Sunday.

With 10 seconds left to play in the half, Green went up to Ramsey and pushed him. The cornerback responded with a shove of his own and after that it was all over.
Green put Ramsey in a chokehold and took him to the ground where he proceeded to throw punches.
The receiver was obviously thrown out of the game, but in addition so was Ramsey, who appeared not to be the aggressor in the fight.
The double ejection left Twitter baffled as well.
How the heck was Jalen Ramsey ejected?????? That’s an absolutely horrific job of officiating by the @NFL. That’s the Jags best player

Any idea why Jalen Ramsey got thrown out there? That looked like it was all on AJ.
