Buffalo Bills defenders appear rather frustrated in the first quarter as they’ve been ran over for more than 100 yards in the first 15. And with lead blocking fullback Patrick Ricard bullying their defenders, defensive lineman Duwuane Smoot decided he couldn’t between him between the whistles.
As the two got up following a five-yard first-down carry by running back Derrick Henry, Ricard pushed Smoot off of him. Smoot responded by kneeing Ricard, who was still on the ground, directly in the head.

The officials did call and penalize Smoot for the play, giving the Ravens an extra 15 yards after the conversion which helped lead to the Ravens second touchdown of the night and taking a 14-3 lead.
