Andre Johnson Fight: Johnson Fights With Cortland Finnegan, Both Ejected

UPDATE: Here is video of the Andre Johnson fight.

The Houston Texans star wide receiver Andre Johnson was ejected during the fourth quarter versus the Tennessee Titans for fighting with defensive back Cortland Finnegan. Johnson appeared to take offense to some trash talking that Finnegan was doing and the situation was exacerbated when Texans quarterback Matt Schaub called 'hike' and Johnson found Finnegan's hands in his face for as part of Finnegan's press.

Almost immediately Johnson responded by ripping off Finnegan’s helmet and tossing it. Soon there after Johnson shoved Finnegan to the ground and they tussled. Johnson had his helmet ripped off by Finnegan but ended up getting the last blow in - literally. Though Finnegan did not do more than talk at Johnson or rip off his helmet, Johnson became enraged at Finnegan enough to throw a few punches, including a haymaker to the back of Finnegan’s head.

Finnegan and Johnson were both ejected, but that didn’t keep Finnegan from jawing at Johnson as the two went their separate ways off of the field.
