Fights break out at joint practices between Broncos and Cowboys

The Denver Broncos had an eventful final day of training camp.

Denver hosted the Dallas Cowboys at practice on Thursday ahead of their preseason showdown on Saturday. The Broncos’ defense apparently had several scuffles with the Cowboys’ offense during the joint practice session.

Andrew Mason of 104.3 The Fan tweeted that it was “one of the most out-of-control” practices he’s ever witnessed. At one point, the benches cleared after Denver’s defense rolled into quarterback Dak Prescott, according to Mike Fisher of Sports Illustrated.

Mason tweeted that there were seven dust-ups at practice, all of them between the Broncos’ defense and the Cowboys’ offense. Denver defensive lineman Marquiss Spencer was apparently at the middle of several of the scuffles.

Fortunately, Broncos coach Nathaniel Hackett said the team left Thursday’s practice without any injuries.

We’ll see if the emotion from Thursday’s practice carries over into Saturday’s preseason game at Empower Field at Mile High.
