A violent altercation broke out during the second joint practice between the New York Jets and New York Giants on Wednesday. The incident began when Will McDonald tackled Tyrone Tracy Jr., sparking tension with the Giants’ offensive line, including Greg Van Roten. The situation escalated as Van Roten and McDonald clashed, prompting rookie Marcus Mbow to intervene.
The Giants’ Jon Runyan Jr. was targeted by Qwan’Tez Stigglers after a disagreement over an earlier tackle. However, Aaron Stinnie and Russell Wilson helped calm the situation. This violent outburst marked a departure from previous training camp practices, where the Jets have been known to use tackling drills that are more intense.
The incident highlights the ongoing tensions between the two teams as they prepare for the upcoming season.
