Horn appeared to punch Murray in the helmet. As players from both teams got into each other, Bears offensive lineman Matt Pryor got shoved to the ground and appeared to throw a punch in the brouhaha. Horn and Pryor were ejected from the game.

Panthers head coach Dave Canales talked about the incident after the game.

“We just have to continue to control our emotions,” Canales said. “In a really hard game, emotions run high right there. He was instigated, we can’t retaliate.”
