From the start Tuesday, team drills had much more pop. The consecutive fights in team drills involved the Cowboys’ defense against the Rams’ offense.
The first fight started when reserve linebacker Andrew Gachkar and Rams center Demetrius Rhaney began pushing each other after the play. Multiple players converged, with several punches thrown and Cowboys rookie defensive end Randy Gregory had his helmet ripped off by Rams rookie offensive lineman Cody Wichmann.
After both teams were separated, action resumed. But on the next play, Gregory – the Cowboys’ prized second-round pick – hadn’t forgotten. He threw Rams rookie offensive tackle Isaiah Battle to the ground. With Gregory walking away and his back turned, Battle came charging after Gregory and jumped on his back as the two teams converged again with several players throwing punches. Gregory again lost his helmet and was knocked to the ground at least twice.
“It’s a brawl, man. They cheap shot. We showed we ain’t backing down from nobody now,” Cowboys defensive end Jeremy Mincey said. “Randy got blocked in the back and he got up and he pushed [Battle] down and it was a dogpile on the rabbit after that. It was just three fights going on at one time.”
The second fight eventually spilled over onto the narrow sideline and up against a fence lined with Rams’ fans. More punches were thrown and multiple players ended up on the ground.
