Ravens safety knocks out two Titans with illegal hits in London
David Richard-USA TODAY Sports

Tennessee Titans tight end Josh Whyle and wide receiver Chris Moore exited Sunday's game early against the Baltimore Ravens with concussions. 

Both head injuries were caused by hits from Ravens' safety Kyle Hamilton, who ended up getting tossed from the game. 

 Whyle was knocked out early in the first quarter on the first drive of the game. 

The rookie tight end played just two snaps and caught an 11-yard pass from quarterback Ryan Tannehill before taking a hit from Hamilton's shoulder to his head. 

He wobbled to the sidelines and was shortly ruled out. 

Hamilton's second nasty tackle was an illegal helmet-to-helmet hit on Moore in the third quarter. 

Moore was able to walk to the sidelines on his own but took a minute to get up following the hit.  

Flags were immediately thrown and Hamilton was ejected, which he didn't seem to agree with. 

An NFL fine for Hamilton is likely to follow and that could range anywhere from $15K to $50K.

For example, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren was fined a hefty sum of $48,333 for illegal use of helmet in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns.

Meanwhile, Denver Broncos safety Kareem Jackson got off easy and was fined just $19,669 for his illegal hit against the Washington Commanders in Week 2.
