It didn't take long for chaos to break out in Sunday's London game between the Jacksonville Jaguars and Philadelphia Eagles.

Jacksonville's Josh Cameron returned the opening kickoff for a touchdown only for it to be called back for holding. However, that was just the start of things, as a fight broke out after the play that resulted in the ejection of Eagles linebacker Jeremiah Trotter Jr. and Jaguars defensive end Bryan Thomas Jr.

Notably, the ejection for Jacksonville was not for the wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr.

In terms of the overall importance of each player, this was more of a blow for Philadelphia.

Trotter has established himself as an important part of the NFC East team's linebacker rotation in his third season since entering the league as a 2024 fifth-round draft pick. Through the first four games, he tallied 19 tackles and a pass defended.

Considering his career-high for tackles is 32 from last year, the Clemson product seems well on his way to his best season.

It was also another loss for an Eagles team playing without Saquon Barkley, DeVonta Smith and Jonathan Greenard, among others.

As for Jacksonville, Thomas posted just one tackle and 0.5 sacks through his first three appearances this season. While he sees playing time on special teams and in the defensive rotation, he isn't one of the team's most important players.

Look for the Jaguars to continue relying on Travon Walker and Josh Hines-Allen to continue leading the pass-rush against the Eagles. They also don't have to worry about Barkley in the backfield, which will allow them to key on Jalen Hurts throughout the game.
