It starts with Robert Blanton shoving Jacoby Brissett and Malcolm Mitchell was not going to let it go.

Following the game, a win by the Bills, Patriots tight end Martellus Bennett made it clear that the fight wouldn't have happened if he were there.

Thursday, three Bills players were fined by the NFL for the altercation. Robert Blanton, Nickell Robey-Coleman, and Aaron Williams were the three culprits.
Blanton was fined $21,000, Robey-Coleman was docked $10,000, and Aaron Williams wouldn't tell reporters a specific amount, only saying "It's up there."
There has yet to be any word of fines for members of the Patriots.
