Jordan Mailata assigned blame for who started fight in Eagles win over Commanders

The big story out of the Philadelphia Eagles' 29-18 win over the Washington Commanders in Week 16 was not the fact that Philly won the NFC East division title for the second straight season. No, it's all about the fight in the fourth quarter.

After Saquon Barkley scored on a two-point conversion to give the Eagles a 29-10 lead, the Commanders and the Birds got into a fight that resulted in starting right guard Tyler Steen and two Washington players being ejected from the game. Eagles left tackle Jordan Mailata recalled the moment it began and how a good block from undrafted rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper started it all.
