Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch was ejected during Thursday Night Football for contact with an official.

Lynch came off the bench during the second quarter after the Chiefs Marcus Peters delivered a late hit on Raiders quarterback Derek Carr. Peters and Lynch were both penalized 15 yards, and Lynch was ejected from the game.

KRON 4 sports reporter Henry Wofford tweeted a video of Lynch heading to the locker room after being ejected.
