And a little rumble after the game to top it off. Broken up fairly quickly.

Mike Tomlin with the “imma whoop yo ass if you keep fighting” jog toward the Steelers at the very end there.

It sounds like Bengals running back Joe Mixon was involved.
All reports are Mixon was escorted off the field for illegal behavior #Bengals #SeizeTheDey

Depending on how serious the fight was, players could be fined and even suspended for what happened, though it’s hard to know right now what exactly went down. The game broadcast did not show the fight, but did show Mike Tomlin running toward it.
We’ll update this story as more details come out...
