Tempers flared during Thursday’s joint practice between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tennessee Titans.
According to ESPN’s Turron Davenport, Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette and Titans defensive lineman Jeffery Simmons got into a fight.
Fournette and Simmons were throwing punches.
Some fans are eager to see footage of this fight between Fournette and Simmons.
Davenport did not reveal who won that fight at Thursday’s practice. Most fans are putting their money on Simmons.
“Top 3 in the NFL on the roster wouldn’t wrestle…Big Jeff Simmons,” said one fan.
Another fan wrote: “Does Leonard Fournette have a death wish?”
Simmons, who earned Pro Bowl honors last season, is a 6-foot-4 defensive lineman who weighs more than 300 pounds. There aren’t many players in the NFL who can match his stature.
Kudos to Fournette for standing firm, but he might want to stay out of Simmons’ way.
