Things got chippy between the Bengals and Packers this Wednesday during their joint practice.
Packers left guard Elgton Jenkins was at the center of a scuffle with Bengals linebacker Germaine Pratt.
Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel provided some context as to what happened at practice this afternoon.
“First fight of the #Packers-#Bengals practice,” Silverstein wrote on social media. “LG Elgton Jenkins dropped a Bengals LB (Germaine Pratt I think) on his butt on a screen. The LB sat down shaking his head for a bit, then got up, approached Jenkins and took a swing at him. Jenkins lunged at him and it was on.”
Shortly after the two sides broke up this fight, Jenkins swung at Bengals defensive tackle DJ Reader.

Jenkins was reportedly escorted out of practice with staff member Grey Ruegamer. That’s not a huge surprise considering he was involved in two fights.
The Bengals and Packers will square off this Friday at 7 p.m. ET.
