WATCH: Justin Hollins, Takk McKinley get into altercation on Rams sideline
Divisional matchups always bring emotions out of NFL players but usually, it’s between the opposing teams. During Monday Night Football, two Los Angeles Rams players were getting into it on the sidelines while struggling against the San Francisco 49ers.
Defensive end Takk McKinley and linebacker Justin Hollins were the two getting into an altercation, with the former having to be held back. It’s been tough for Los Angeles to stop Kyle Shanahan’s offense all night, especially wide receiver Deebo Samuel. It’s understandable why the players are frustrated.

However, two of Los Angeles’s star defenders made up for it with an impressive tackle when the defense wasn’t even on the field. Linebackers Bobby Wagner and Takk McKinley teamed up to take down a streaker who had made his way onto the field.
