Mitchell and Wirfs were face-to-face, and the Eagles player grabbed Wirfs’ helmet. Mitchell seemed to take off Wirfs’ helmet during the incident. Mitchell fell the helmet as he went back to his hug. A longer repetition on the FOX broadcast showed Mitchell and Mayfield Lock Horn before WIRFs came to address the Eagles player.
Surprisingly, none of the players were called for a punishment. Instead, Eagles Linebacker Jalyx Hunt was called for an illegal blindside block. Tampa Bay ended the 12-play, 48-yard driven with a field goal. It was Buccaneers’ first point in the game.
