It’s not too often that you see a player ejected from a game, and certainly not from the Pittsburgh Steelers. Truth be told, prior to Sunday’s game, I could not tell you off the top of my head when the last time is that they have had a player actually ejected from a game.
But guard Trai Turner managed to do just that just two games into his Steelers career, after he was caught spitting at an opponent against the Las Vegas Raiders. This followed a confrontation, and he maintains—and the team has his back—that a Raiders player spit on him before he responded in kind.
