Just about any time there’s a joint practice held between two teams at training camp, tempers boil over and at least one skirmish breaks out. On Saturday afternoon when the Rams and Cowboys took the field together, it happened twice.
The first was between Aaron Donald and Cowboys offensive lineman Connor Williams. They got into it after going head to head during team drills, with the two locking arms after the play was over and going to the ground. Williams wouldn’t back down to Donald, holding his own against the best defensive player in the world.
Later on in practice, Kenny Young and running back Tony Pollard exchanged blows. Young punched the ball out well after the play was over, which led to Pollard retaliating.

Aaron Donald had one of his worst games (statistically) in the Cowboys-Rams 2018 season playoff game.
- Donald was blocked by rookie Connor Williams the majority of that game.
The reason is that Donald is the best type of match-up for CW (i.e. Smallish but wins with ultra-elite quickness).
- CW has elite quickness. He has better foot quickness than many LTs and definitely better than almost all interior OLinemen.
