"Players from the Bears and Detroit Lions are expected to make a sizeable contribution to the NFL's charitable partners this week.

A scrap between Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford and Bears cornerback D.J. Moore cleared both benches and required several minutes to be sorted out.

Based on the NFL's policy on fighting, about two dozen players should expect to pay a price, even if they were trying to play peacemaker. A league spokesman said they would review the brawl.

"The NFL policy on fighting is very simple: Don't fight, and if a fight breaks out involving other players, stay away," the policy states. "If you are challenged, walk away from the situation and continue playing football. Fights in the NFL are pointless and only lead to penalties, as well as possible fines and disqualification from the game — all of which hurt your team."
