According to beat reporters on-site, the practices for the Seattle Seahawks at training camp had been getting increasingly scrappy in recent days. The scuffling and sparring between the offensive and defensive units (usually between the wide receivers and the cornerbacks) has finally exploded into full-on fights at today's session at the VMAC. There have apparently been multiple dust-ups and head coach Mike Madonald has had to pause practice, only to see more fights break out later on.
The details for the first skirmish come from ESPN's Seahawks beat reporter Brady Henderson, who described a brawl between cornerback Tre Brown and wide receiver Jake Bobo, who both threw some punches.
Then only a few plays later, Tre Brown also got into it with star wide receiver DK Metcalf.
Not wanting to miss out on all the fun, even depth options such as Carlton Johnson and Dee Eskridge got into it as well.
Even some of the backup linemen like Derick Hall and Christian Haynes have also started tussling.
Fighting at training camp is not the end of the world, and to some extent it's to be expected with only a few days to go before their first preseason game of the year. However, needless to say this is not ideal. If Macdonald has to call off the rest of practice to get the fighting to stop then that's what he should do.
