Chiefs vs Lions Fight! 😳 Brian Branch sparks brawl on Sunday Night Football! #NFL #Chiefs #Lions
Brian Branch and JuJu Smith-Schuster Get Into It After Lions vs Chiefs! 😳🔥 | NFL Drama
Things got heated at Arrowhead Stadium after the Kansas City Chiefs closed out their 30-17 win over the Detroit Lions on Sunday Night Football.
As both teams walked onto the field for postgame handshakes, Lions safety Brian Branch appeared to smack JuJu Smith-Schuster in the facemask — right after passing by Patrick Mahomes, who was trying to shake his hand. The hit sent JuJu to the ground, sparking an all-out scuffle between both teams.
Players and coaches quickly rushed in to break things up, and while it eventually cooled off, Smith-Schuster walked off holding a towel to his face. Andy Reid later confirmed that JuJu suffered “pretty good damage” to his nose.
After the game, Branch admitted he let emotions get the best of him:
“I did a little childish thing… but I’m tired of people doing stuff in between plays and the refs don’t catch it. I should’ve never did it.”
Branch claimed JuJu had hit him illegally in the back earlier in the game, but even Lions head coach Dan Campbell didn’t defend his player’s reaction:
“I love Brian Branch, but what he did is inexcusable. That’s not who we are or what we do.”
The Chiefs improved to 3-3 behind another strong night from Mahomes — 22/30 for 257 yards and 3 TDs, plus one rushing score — while the Lions dropped to 4-2 after the tough road loss.
Expect the NFL to hand out fines soon… but this rivalry just got personal. 👀

JuJu is a chump 😂
KC try deal hand but white mad hit head KC payback it right ……. Lion will pay fine soon
I'm old school grab your own man, teammate, friend etc.
Ju Ju is just a punk running his mouth! He wants the attention and new a fight would break out.
NFL gives way more attention and favortism towards the Chief's.
This is what happens when the refs protect the chiefs all game and even remove touchdowns from any team getting close to winning. Good for them.!!!
I was at the game. Chiefs+worthy td+maholmes passing yds ov 250. Ty!
Mad because we lost. Smh Never gon be champs with this mindset Branch. You on TV getting paid millions to act like a child?
Kick his stupid ass out of the league.
Ya running your mouth will get you hurt! Then getting beat up and looking like it wasn’t your fault. 🤦🏽♂️
The NFL is doing an investigation because of Mahomes taunting Branch after making a TD, so it looks like Mahomes and Branch will be fined, except Branch might get suspended as well
This is what the NFL has to turn to to make it exciting because the football is a pathetic you want to watch football go put on a 85 Bears that's football this is theater you might have to put flags on the players I might watch that look like Tarzan play like Jane
jUJU got what he deserved after he cheap shotted branch erlier and the refs looked the other way,
best part of the game
Has anyone noticed that Chiefs had no penalties for the entire game you know how rare that is
Sore loser
You have to limit the number of blacks in the NFL.
If Branches gets any suspension smith’s should match at least. You can see in the scrap he tried to grab his leg and alligator roll.
That whole game gave me some bad juju
Fine and suspension!
Branch should be suspended 6 games minimum
That's what happens when the Chiefs have an unfair advantage because they are paying off the refs😂🤣✌️
Branch should have flat out whooped jujus ass…
The defensive player branch took the WR down with ease.
Show me the part where they fight?
– Why would you hit someone and then start backpedaling?
Funny how Juju gave Branch a crack back block and wasn't called for it.
Did they get fine
Ju Ju is just upset because he knows deep down inside the Chiefs suck and they not making it to the playoffs this year and they damn sure ain't getting to the Super Bowl Hey Chief fans you guys suck
Meanwhile My Colts are the 1# seed in the AFC division the new kings of the AFC lets go Colts the road to the Super Bowl is going to be through Lucas Oil Stadium
Dude branch is strong af he’s like a honey badger
Should’ve hit him harder the first time.. if you’re going to take one for the greater good you better get your money’s worth..
