Patriots players got a kick out of Mike Vrabel’s involvement in the fight that broke out with the Commanders in Wednesday’s joint practice, but New England’s head coach didn’t laugh too much about the matter.
In his first comments about the fight, Vrabel sternly explained why he felt the need to jump into a pile of Patriots and Commanders players pushing and shoving each other when he was asked about the incident on Sunday.
“I realized that Will [Campbell] and I were thinking the same thing — just trying to get the second guy off TreVeyon [Henderson] and they’re wrestling around,” Vrabel told reporters.
