WATCH: 49ers OL Trent Williams EJECTED from NFC title game for throwing K’Von Wallace to the ground

The dying embers of the NFC Championship game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the San Francisco 49ers were re-ignited when Niners OL Trent Williams slammed Eagles CB K’Von Wallace to the ground.

The incident occurred with less than four minutes remaining in the fourth quarter with the Eagles leading 31-7.

A group of players appeared to be pushing and shoving each other in a scrum which continued to move until Williams grabbed Wallace by the back of his jersey and threw him to the turf – starting a fight.
