Temperatures were in the mid-90s in New Jersey on Monday but were even hotter on the practice field at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center — the training camp home of the New York Giants.
A skirmish involving center Jon Feliciano, Saquon Barkley, Cam Brown, Aaron Robinson, Tae Crowder, Antonio Williams and offensive line coach Bobby Johnson occurred at practice, according to the New York Post.

The incident started when Barkley lowered his shoulder into Robinson during a drill and Crowder took major issue, according to The Athletic.

On the next play, Crowder tackled Williams to the ground and the brouhaha ensued. Feliciano went after Crowder and punched Brown in the head. Johnson also got involved and was seen pushing Brown.
Video showed both benches emptying onto the field. Feliciano also joked about the fight, retweeting a picture of himself getting pulled out of the fracas.
