This a 2-2 team. They need a fire lit.

Yeah, I'm sure that's what's gonna do it...a WR losing his cool at his own teammate in practice

What team have you played for where no fights happened?

How we go from millennials being soft and crying about everything to people acting like a fight at practice is the worse thing to ever happen is beyond me.

I'm sure there is more to this story than just a fight at practice.

Plus one. There likely were some borderline, non addressable behavour transgressions, where Sean wasn't happy with what he was seeing and this conflict presented an opportunity for a teachable moment...

At least that's what I expect the language around this incident to reflect...

Seems like this has been a feud thats been going on since last season.

Update: NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported that Thomas punched second-year safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
This was confirmed by Nick Underhill for NewOrleans.Football, who reported that Thomas and Gardner-Johnson were also involved in a fight early last season. Both players got physical at an Aug. 20 training camp practice.

Let’s see how MT responses, if you hear mumbling on he wants to be traded. Then we got ourselves a pure D I V A, if he learns from this we have a TEAM first all pro back

Sports Illustrated really needs somebody competent to run the Saints Fandom page - guess you get for what you pay...

he is ruled him out? When you're compensated, you should be better than this...
