‘The heat got to us:’ Giants’ practice ends with a fight as players push, shove and throw punches
The New York Giants went from running plays to squaring off, ready to rumble in the middle of the field. Punches were thrown and helmets and players tossed aside. And they haven’t even made it to minicamp yet. Edge rusher Brian Burns said the heat got to the players Thursday after the Giants’ sixth practice of organized team activities. First, Burns and left tackle James Hudson took off their helmets and squared up as if they were going to fight. On the next play, edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux and offensive tackle Jermaine Eluemunor got into it and Thibodeaux took a swing at his teammate. A few players ended up on the ground.
