It seemed as though the Carolina Panthers and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers needed more than just overtime to settle their score.
Sunday evening saw the visiting Buccaneers pull off a walk-off 26-23 win over the host Panthers. But the Week 13 showdown extended well beyond the field, as Carolina safety Sam Franklin Jr. was captured in a heated exchange in the tunnel after the game . . .
No. 33 for the Bucs is outside linebacker Jose Ramirez. Sunday marked the third NFL game for Ramirez, a sixth round pick from the 2023 draft.
Then, this happened . . .
The reasoning behind the wild scene is not yet clear . . . at least to those who were not involved.
