Cincinnati Bengals rookie first-round pick Shemar Stewart was the reason behind a big scuffle at training camp on Wednesday.
Stewart was rushing during 11-on-11 drills when he lost his footing and fell into quarterback Joe Burrow , knocking him to the turf.
In training camp, it’s emphasized across the NFL to not hit the quarterback to avoid any chance of injury. Even if Stewart didn’t mean to do so, the Bengals’ offensive line took exception, and tensions ran high between the teammates.
The scuffle was caught on video, though it didn’t seem to escalate to something too physical.
After practice, multiple offensive linemen expressed their displeasure with Stewart’s actions.
