The preseason officially starts on Thursday night, which means NFL teams have been having joint practices throughout the week. Naturally, joint practices mean team fights. Every year, when opposing teams meet each other in the middle of training camp, it leads to fights, and this year has been no different.
On Thursday afternoon, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers did their part to keep the trend going. Hosting the Tennessee Titans for practice, it didn’t take long for both teams to clear their sidelines. As Tampa’s first-team offense faced off against Tennessee’s starting defense, the Buccaneers took exception to running back Bucky Irving being slung to the ground.
