LANDOVER, Md. -- Washington Commanders defensive tackle Daron Payne was ejected in the second quarter of Sunday's game against the Lions after punching Detroit receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. After Detroit scored its third touchdown of the first half, Payne slugged St. Brown with his right hand after a verbal exchange. He was given an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and an automatic ejection. It marked the first time Payne, in his eighth season, has been ejected from a game.
