Mike Vrabel got physical on Wednesday during practice
The New England Patriots head coach entered a scrum and emerged with a scrape to his cheek
Players praised the coach's "intensity"
New England Patriots coach Mike Vrabel entered the fray — and emerged with a bloody cheek.
“Hey, you should have seen the other guy,” Vrabel joked to his players after the fracas, which happened during a practice scrimmage against the Washington Commanders on Wednesday, Aug. 6.
The scrum started after Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson collided with a Commanders defender who was blocking for his quarterback Drake Maye, leading the players on the field to join in on the scuffle.
